Hmm, right, I missed that. But it's weird. The previous logic was
confusing (skb is freed in case of error but not otherwise), I'm with
you on this change. But having the same confusing logic with dst_entry
instead doesn't improve things.

Could we free both skb and dst_entry from the caller?

Thanks,

 Jiri
