Please use tabs instead of spaces for indentation. This causes a
bunch of whitespace warnings but please check for other uses as well:
Applying: Avoid skb-clone in upcall
/home/jesse/openvswitch/.git/rebase-apply/patch:29: space before tab in indent.
kfree_skb(skb);
/home/jesse/openvswitch/.git/rebase-apply/patch:74: space before tab in indent.
next = nskb->next;
/home/jesse/openvswitch/.git/rebase-apply/patch:75: space before tab in indent.
kfree_skb(nskb);
/home/jesse/openvswitch/.git/rebase-apply/patch:76: space before tab in indent.
} while ((nskb = next) != NULL);
warning: 4 lines add whitespace errors.

Now that this variable has been moved to a larger scope, can you
please give it a more descriptive name?

You can move the assignment of skb = skb->next in the while loop -
that's the slightly more canonical way to do it.
Otherwise, this looks good to me:
