I encountered a kernel panic with my test program, which is a very
simple IPv6 client-server program.

The server side sets IPV6_RECVPKTINFO on a listening socket, and the
client side just sends a message to the server.  Then the kernel panic
occurs on the server.  (If you need the test program, please let me
know. I can provide it.)

This problem happens because a skb is forcibly freed in
tcp_rcv_state_process().

When a socket in listening state(TCP_LISTEN) receives a syn packet,
then tcp_v6_conn_request() will be called from
tcp_rcv_state_process().  If the tcp_v6_conn_request() successfully
returns, the skb would be discarded by __kfree_skb().

However, in case of a listening socket which was already set
IPV6_RECVPKTINFO, an address of the skb will be stored in
treq->pktopts and a ref count of the skb will be incremented in
tcp_v6_conn_request().  But, even if the skb is still in use, the skb
will be freed.  Then someone still using the freed skb will cause the
kernel panic.

I suggest to use kfree_skb() instead of __kfree_skb().
