Jesper Dangaard Brouer 9dde0cd3b1 net: introduce skb_poison_list and use in kfree_skb_list
First user of skb_poison_list is in kfree_skb_list_reason, to catch bugs
earlier like introduced in commit eedade12f4 ("net: kfree_skb_list use
kmem_cache_free_bulk"). For completeness mentioned bug have been fixed in
commit f72ff8b81e ("net: fix kfree_skb_list use of skb_mark_not_on_list").

In case of a bug like mentioned commit we would have seen OOPS with:
 general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdead000000000870
And content of one the registers e.g. R13: dead000000000800

In this case skb->len is at offset 112 bytes (0x70) why fault happens at
 0x800+0x70 = 0x870

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
