Never mind.  It's freed in the caller.  But it does a weird thing:

TODO-list:  Clean up p80211_wep->data allocation in 
p80211knetdev_hard_start_xmit().

It's set to NULL, then memset to zero, then when we call
skb_ether_to_p80211() we again set it to NULL then at the end we check
if it is equal to skb->data (it is not), and we also call kzfree()
instead of kfree().  Load of nonsense.

dan carpenter
