Subject: [PATCH net-next 13/15] net: Add and use skb_list_del_init().


It documents what is happening, and eliminates the spurious list
pointer poisoning.

In the long term, in order to get proper list head debugging, we
might want to use the list poinson value as the indicator that
an SKB is a singleton and not on a list.
