2.6.27.59-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us 
know.

------------------

From: David S. Miller <[email protected]>

commit 4e085e76cbe558b79b54cbab772f61185879bc64 upstream.

Unconditional use of skb->dev won't work here,
try to fetch the econet device via skb_dst()->dev
instead.

Suggested by Eric Dumazet.
