Subject: ax25: Use skb_orphan before touching skb destructor
Hi Dave:
This is the first in a series of patches (yet to be written :)
to allow the removal of the skb_orphan call that I recently
added to netif_receive_skb.
ax25: Use skb_orphan before touching skb destructor
Before taking ownership of skb->destructor, we should ensure
that the existing destructor is called through skb_orphan.
In future this should be moved further down to where we actually
call skb_set_owner_*.
