TCP: MTUprobe: fix potential sk_send_head corruption
[TCP] MTUprobe: fix potential sk_send_head corruption [ Upstream commit: 6e42141009ff18297fe19d19296738b742f861db ] When the abstraction functions got added, conversion here was made incorrectly. As a result, the skb may end up pointing to skb which got included to the probe skb and then was freed. For it to trigger, however, skb_transmit must fail sending as well.
