net: neigh: don't call kfree_skb() under spin_lock_irqsave()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit d5485d9 upstream.

It is not allowed to call kfree_skb() from hardware interrupt
context or with interrupts being disabled. So add all skb to
a tmp list, then free them after spin_unlock_irqrestore() at
once.

Fixes: 66ba215 ("neigh: fix possible DoS due to net iface start/stop loop")
