[ Upstream commit f35d12971b4d814cdb2f659d76b42f0c545270b6 ]
x25_lapb_receive_frame() invokes x25_get_neigh(), which returns a
reference of the specified x25_neigh object to "nb" with increased
refcnt.
When x25_lapb_receive_frame() returns, local variable "nb" becomes
invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced.
The reference counting issue happens in one path of
x25_lapb_receive_frame(). When pskb_may_pull() returns false, the
function forgets to decrease the refcnt increased by x25_get_neigh(),
causing a refcnt leak.
Fix this issue by calling x25_neigh_put() when pskb_may_pull() returns
false.
Fixes: cb101ed2c3c7 ("x25: Handle undersized/fragmented skbs")
