3.2.77-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Herbert Xu <[email protected]> commit a383292c86663bbc31ac62cc0c04fc77504636a6 upstream. When we fail an accept(2) call we will end up freeing the socket twice, once due to the direct sk_free call and once again through newsock. This patch fixes this by removing the sk_free call.
