In ax25_make_new, if kmemdup of digipeat returns an error, there would
be an oops in sk_free while calling sk_destruct, because sk_protinfo
is NULL at the moment; move sk-&gt;sk_destruct initialization after this.

This provides safety against negative optlen at the type
level instead of depending upon (sometimes non-trivial)
checks against this sprinkled all over the the place, in
each and every implementation.

Based upon work done by Arjan van de Ven and feedback
from Linus Torvalds.

ax25_setsockopt SO_BINDTODEVICE is missing a dev_put call in case of
success.  Re-order code to fix this bug.  While at it also reformat two
lines of code to comply with the Linux coding style.

<title>net: Move rx skb_orphan call to where needed</title>

<id>d55d87fdff8252d0e2f7c28c2d443aee17e9d70f</id>
<content type='text'>
In order to get the tun driver to account packets, we need to be
able to receive packets with destructors set.  To be on the safe
side, I added an skb_orphan call for all protocols by default since
some of them (IP in particular) cannot handle receiving packets
destructors properly.

Now it seems that at least one protocol (CAN) expects to be able
to pass skb-&gt;sk through the rx path without getting clobbered.

So this patch attempts to fix this properly by moving the skb_orphan
call to where it's actually needed.  In particular, I've added it
to skb_set_owner_[rw] which is what most users of skb-&gt;destructor
call.

This is actually an improvement for tun too since it means that
we only give back the amount charged to the socket when the skb
is passed to another socket that will also be charged accordingly.

(net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx)
changed initial sk_wmem_alloc value.

Some protocols check sk_wmem_alloc value to determine if a timer
must delay socket deallocation. We must take care of the sk_wmem_alloc
value being one instead of zero when no write allocations are pending.

Reported by Ingo Molnar, and full diagnostic from David Miller.

This patch introduces three helpers to get read/write allocations
and a followup patch will use these helpers to report correct
write allocations to user.

Like netrom, Alan Cox says that zero lengths have real meaning
