[ Upstream commit74e7e1efda] It is not allowed to call kfree_skb() from hardware interrupt context or with interrupts being disabled. So remove kfree_skb() from the spin_lock_irqsave() section and use the already existing "drop" label in xenvif_start_xmit() for dropping the SKB. At the same time replace the dev_kfree_skb() call there with a call of dev_kfree_skb_any(), as xenvif_start_xmit() can be called with disabled interrupts. This is XSA-424 / CVE-2022-42328 / CVE-2022-42329.

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.
