Subject: [PATCH net] netpoll: linearize skb before accessing its data

__netpoll_rx() assumes that the data buffer of the received
skb is linear and then passes it to rx_hook().
However this is not true because the skb has not been
linearized yet.

This can cause rx_hook() to access non allocated memory
while parsing the received data.

Fix __netpoll_rx() by explicitly linearising the skb.

I checked linux-3.0 and this bug seems to be already there. Please consider
queueing it for stable.
