Subject: [PATCH 4.9 007/107] xen/netfront: dont cache skb_shinfo()

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

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

From: Juergen Gross <jgross@...e.com>

commit d472b3a6cf63cd31cae1ed61930f07e6cd6671b5 upstream.

skb_shinfo() can change when calling __pskb_pull_tail(): Don't cache
its return value.
