Eric Dumazet 7d449b7a6c ax25: properly unshare skbs in ax25_kiss_rcv()
[ Upstream commit 8156210d36a43e76372312c87eb5ea3dbb405a85 ]

Bernard Pidoux reported a regression apparently caused by commit
c353e8983e0d ("net: introduce per netns packet chains").

skb->dev becomes NULL and we crash in __netif_receive_skb_core().

Before above commit, different kind of bugs or corruptions could happen
without a major crash.

But the root cause is that ax25_kiss_rcv() can queue/mangle input skb
without checking if this skb is shared or not.

Many thanks to Bernard Pidoux for his help, diagnosis and tests.

We had a similar issue years ago fixed with commit 7aaed57c5c
("phonet: properly unshare skbs in phonet_rcv()").

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.
