Subject: [PATCH 36/54] forcedeth: Call dev_kfree_skb_any instead of kfree_skb.

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

Replace kfree_skb with dev_kfree_skb_any in functions that can
be called in hard irq and other contexts.

Every location changes is a drop making dev_kfree_skby_any appropriate.
