Subject: [PATCH] skb: Add skb_head_is_locked helper function
Date: Thu, 03 May 2012 04:09:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120503110942.18281.27820.stgit@gitlad.jf.intel.com> (raw)

This patch adds support for a skb_head_is_locked helper function.  It is
meant to be used any time we are considering transferring the head from
skb->head to a paged frag.  If the head is locked it means we cannot remove
the head from the skb so it must be copied or we must take the skb as a
whole.
