         [...]

The bug is that most callers of llc_conn_send_pdu() assume it consumes a
reference to the skb, when actually due to commit b85ab56c3f ("llc:
properly handle dev_queue_xmit() return value") it doesn't.

Revert most of that commit, and instead make the few places that need
llc_conn_send_pdu() to *not* consume a reference call skb_get() before.

Fixes: b85ab56c3f ("llc: properly handle dev_queue_xmit() return value")

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.
