Subject: [PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 201/206] batman-adv: fix skb deref after free

4.2.8-ckt12 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Florian Westphal <fw@...len.de>

commit 63d443efe8be2c1d02b30d7e4edeb9aa085352b3 upstream.

batadv_send_skb_to_orig() calls dev_queue_xmit() so we can't use skb->len.

Fixes: 953324776d6d ("batman-adv: network coding - buffer unicast packets before forward")
