netem: fix skb_orphan_partial()

Browse source

[ Upstream commit f6ba8d33cf ]

I should have known that lowering skb->truesize was dangerous :/

In case packets are not leaving the host via a standard Ethernet device,
but looped back to local sockets, bad things can happen, as reported
by Michael Madsen ( https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195713 )

So instead of tweaking skb->truesize, lets change skb->destructor
and keep a reference on the owner socket via its sk_refcnt.
