list_del() leaves the skb->next pointer poisoned, which can then lead to
a crash in e.g. OVS forwarding. For example, setting up an OVS VXLAN
forwarding bridge on sfc as per:
========
$ ovs-vsctl show
5dfd9c47-f04b-4aaa-aa96-4fbb0a522a30
Bridge "br0"
Port "br0"
Interface "br0"
type: internal
Port "enp6s0f0"
Interface "enp6s0f0"
Port "vxlan0"
Interface "vxlan0"
type: vxlan
options: {key="1", local_ip="10.0.0.5", remote_ip="10.0.0.4"}
ovs_version: "2.5.0"
========
(where 10.0.0.5 is an address on enp6s0f1)
and sending traffic across it will lead to the following panic:

So, in all listified-receive handling, instead pull skbs off the lists with
skb_list_del_init().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
