Subject: [PATCH] net: kcm: fix memory leak in kcm_sendmsg

Syzbot reported memory leak in kcm_sendmsg()[1].
The problem was in non-freed frag_list in case of error.

In the while loop:

if (head == skb)
skb_shinfo(head)->frag_list = tskb;
else
skb->next = tskb;

frag_list filled with skbs, but nothing was freeing them.

backtrace:

What do you mean by "nothing was freeing them"?

I am sure kfree_skb() will free those in frag_list:

654 static void skb_release_data(struct sk_buff *skb)
655 {
656 struct skb_shared_info *shinfo = skb_shinfo(skb);
657 int i;
...
669 if (shinfo->frag_list)
670 kfree_skb_list(shinfo->frag_list);

This exact kfree_skb() should free those in frag_list. If the above
if condition does not meet for some reason, then fix that condition?

Thanks.

I will debug this today later. I think, this commit should be reverted,
because it's broken. Or I can send next patch on top of this. What do
you think of that, David?
