If you see a bug like this, you may as well ask Julia or me to add a
static checker warning for it.  We're both already on the CC list but we
might not be following the conversation closely...

In Smatch, I thought it would be easy but it turned out I need to add
a hack around to change the second nla_nest_start_noflag() from unknown
to valid pointer.

Unfortunately, there is something weird going on and only my unreleased
version of Smatch finds the bug:

net/dcb/dcbnl.c:1306 dcbnl_ieee_fill() warn: 'skb' from nla_nest_start_noflag() not released on lines: 1160,1171,1184,1197,1207,1217,1222,1232,1257.
net/dcb/dcbnl.c:1502 dcbnl_cee_fill() warn: 'skb' from nla_nest_start_noflag() not released on lines: 1502.

I have been working on that check recently...  Both the released and
unreleased versions of Smatch have the following complaints:

net/dcb/dcbnl.c:400 dcbnl_getnumtcs() warn: 'skb' from nla_nest_start_noflag() not released on lines: 396.
net/dcb/dcbnl.c:1061 dcbnl_build_peer_app() warn: 'skb' from nla_nest_start_noflag() not released on lines: 1061.
