why can't we just do the following?
         skb_list_walk_safe(segs, skb, nskb) {
                 status = myri10ge_xmit(curr, dev);
                 if (err)
                         break;

         }

         /* Free all of the segments. */
         skb_list_walk_safe(segs, skb, nskb) {
                 if (err)
                         kfree_skb(skb);
                 else
                         consume_skb(skb);
         }
         return err;
