Subject: [PATCH 4.19 101/118] can: kvaser_usb: Fix accessing freed memory in kvaser_usb_start_xmit()

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

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

From: Jimmy Assarsson <jimmyassarsson@...il.com>

commit e13fb9b37cc00616b90df2d620f30345b5ada6ff upstream.

The call to can_put_echo_skb() may result in the skb being freed. The skb
is later used in the call to dev->ops->dev_frame_to_cmd().

This is avoided by moving the call to can_put_echo_skb() after
dev->ops->dev_frame_to_cmd().
