Subject: [PATCH NET v4 5/7] vrf: use skb_expand_head in vrf_finish_output

Unlike skb_realloc_headroom, new helper skb_expand_head
does not allocate a new skb if possible.

Signed-off-by: Vasily Averin <vvs@...tuozzo.com>

v4: fixes null pointer dereference reported by Julian Wiedmann,
replace skb->dev by dev = skb_dst(skb)->dev
vrf_finish_output() is only called from vrf_output(),
it set skb->dev to skb_dst(skb)->dev and calls POSTROUTING netfilter
hooks, where output device should not be changed.
