Subject: [PATCH net-next] packet: dont drop packet but consume it
Date: Thu, 19 Apr 2012 14:24:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1334838282.2395.153.camel@edumazet-glaptop> (raw)

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

When we need to clone skb, we dont drop a packet.
Call consume_skb() to not confuse dropwatch.
