Subject: [PATCH 1/1] Drivers: net-next: hyperv: Fix a bug in netvsc_start_xmit()
Date: Sun, 28 Sep 2014 19:49:51 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1411958991-28049-1-git-send-email-kys@microsoft.com> (raw)
After the packet is successfully sent, we should not touch the skb as it may
have been freed. This patch is based on the work done by
Long Li <longli@microsoft.com>.
