	 [...]

The bug is that llc_sap_state_process() always takes an extra reference
to the skb, but sometimes neither llc_sap_next_state() nor
llc_sap_state_process() itself drops this reference.

Fix it by changing llc_sap_next_state() to never consume a reference to
the skb, rather than sometimes do so and sometimes not.  Then remove the
extra skb_get() and kfree_skb() from llc_sap_state_process().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
