Subject: [BUG] net: core: netif_receive_skb_list() crash on non-standard
 ptypes forwarding

Hi Edward,

Seems like I've found another poisoned skb->next crash with
netif_receive_skb_list().
This is similar to the one than has been already fixed in 22f6bbb7bcfc
("net: use skb_list_del_init() to remove from RX sublists"). This one 
however
applies only to non-standard ptypes (in my case -- ETH_P_XDSA).

I use simple VLAN NAT setup through nft. After switching my in-dev 
driver to
netif_receive_skb_list(), system started to crash on forwarding:

Some additional debug have showed that skb->next is poisoned on 
dsa_switch_rcv()
-- ETH_P_XDSA ptype .func() callback. So when skb enters 
dev_hard_start_xmit(),
function tries to "schedule" backpointer to list_head for transmitting.

Here's a working possible fix for that, not sure if it can break 
anything
though.

Maybe you could look into this and find another/better solution (or I 
could
submit this one if that's pretty enough).

BTW, great work with netif_receive_skb_list() -- I've got 70 Mbps gain 
(~15%)
on my setup in comparsion to napi_gro_receive().

Thanks,
Alexander.
