SubjectRe: [PATCH] can: mcba_usb: fix possible double dev_kfree_skb in mcba_usb_start_xmit
From
Hi yashi,

You are right. There are a series of the same problems about
can_put_echo_skb.

This issue was discovered while I was discussing a incorrect patch with
Marc. You can check this in

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220225060019.21220-1-hbh25y@gmail.com/

So i submitted a new patch. This was the first place where the problem
occurs. You can check this in

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220228083639.38183-1-hbh25y@gmail.com/

After a week, I realized it could be a series of problems. So
i submitted the following patches

[2]
https://lore.kernel.org/all/0d2f9980-fb1d-4068-7868-effc77892a97@gmail.com/
[3]
https://lore.kernel.org/all/de416319-c027-837d-4b8c-b8c3c37ed88e@gmail.com/
[4] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220317081305.739554-1-mkl@pengutronix.de/

I think this is all affected. None of the four have been merged
upstream. Do i need to remake all these four patches?

Thanks,
Hangyu
