> around original SKB when we software segment GSO frames") frees the
> original skb after software GSO even for dodgy gso skbs. This breaks
> the stream throughput from untrusted sources, since only header
> checking was done during software GSO instead of a true
> segmentation. This patch fixes this by freeing the original gso skb
> only when it was really segmented by software.
