Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: Revert "net: add function to allocate sk_buff head without data area"
Date: Mon, 17 Jul 2017 18:56:54 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170717165654.20026-1-fw@strlen.de> (raw)

It was added for netlink mmap tx, there are no callers in the tree.
The commit also added a check for skb->head != NULL in kfree_skb path,
remove that too -- all skbs ought to have skb->head set.
