Description

net: vertexcom: mse102x: Fix possible double free of TX skb

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: vertexcom: mse102x: Fix possible double free of TX skb

The scope of the TX skb is wider than just mse102x_tx_frame_spi(),

so in case the TX skb room needs to be expanded, we should free the

the temporary skb instead of the original skb. Otherwise the original

TX skb pointer would be freed again in mse102x_tx_work(), which leads

to crashes:
