> Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 09/10] qlcnic: use pskb_may_pull() to pull
> excess TX frags into the head
> 
> qlcnic_xmit_frame() pulls the frags that don't fit in a TX descriptor
> into the head with __pskb_pull_tail().  It already checks the result.
> Switch to pskb_may_pull(), which takes the length the head should end up
> with and checks it against the skb, so this driver no longer calls
> __pskb_pull_tail() directly.
> 
> __pskb_pull_tail() also releases empty frags, even when there's nothing
> to pull, so if the frags being pulled are all empty it still gets the
> frag count under the limit.  pskb_may_pull() returns early in that case,
> so follow it with skb_drop_empty_frags().
