[PATCH 5/5] skbuff: skb_segment: orphan frags before copying

From: Michael S. Tsirkin
Date: Mon Mar 10 2014 - 13:29:01 EST


skb_segment copies frags around, so we need
to copy them carefully to avoid accessing
user memory after reporting completion to userspace
through a callback.

skb_segment doesn't normally happen on datapath:
TSO needs to be disabled - so disabling zero copy
in this case does not look like a big deal.
