[042/152] mac80211: Fix BUG in pskb_expand_head when transmitting shared skbs

[Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de>]

2.6.36-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com>

commit 7e2447075690860e2cea96b119fc9cadbaa7e83c upstream.

mac80211 doesn't handle shared skbs correctly at the moment. As a result
a possible resize can trigger a BUG in pskb_expand_head.

Fix this by making a local copy of shared skbs prior to mangeling them.
To avoid copying the skb unnecessarily move the skb_copy call below the
checks that don't need write access to the skb.

Also, move the assignment of nh_pos and h_pos below the skb_copy to point
to the correct skb.

It would be possible to avoid another resize of the copied skb by using
skb_copy_expand instead of skb_copy but that would make the patch more
complex. Also, shared skbs are a corner case right now, so the resize
shouldn't matter much.
