Subject: [PATCH 4.6 07/31] netem: fix a use after free

4.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

[ Upstream commit 21de12ee5568fd1aec47890c72967abf791ac80a ]

If the packet was dropped by lower qdisc, then we must not
access it later.

Save qdisc_pkt_len(skb) in a temp variable.
