Subject: [063/114] bridge: Fix skb leak when multicast parsing fails on TX

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------


From: Herbert Xu <herbert@...dor.apana.org.au>

[ Upstream commit 6d1d1d398cb7db7a12c5d652d50f85355345234f ]

On the bridge TX path we're leaking an skb when br_multicast_rcv
returns an error.
