Subject: [PATCH 3.2 207/221] 8139cp: Call dev_kfree_skby_any instead of
 kfree_skb.

3.2.69-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@...ssion.com>

commit 508f81d517ed1f3f0197df63ea7ab5cd91b6f3b3 upstream.

Replace kfree_skb with dev_kfree_skb_any in cp_start_xmit
as it can be called in both hard irq and other contexts.
