Hi Alex,

I'm not keen on handling kfree_skb inside of lowpan_process_data for reasons 
already stated in a previous email.  I'll have a rethink to see if there's 
another way of handling this.  One idea I'm investigating is pskb_expand_head, 
this doesn't create a new sk_buff but adds room to the head and/or tail which 
seems perfect for decompression.  There must only be a reference count of 1, so 
we would need to make a copy if this is the case before passing to 
decompression, I can't think why there would be more than 1 reference as the 
packet will only have passed through the 802.15.4 layer and only 6LoWPAN can 
decompress it.   If it's cloned for monitoring then this would be a problem.
Any thoughts on this?

- Martin.
