Subject: Connector: Correctly set the error code in case of success
when dispatching receive callbacks
From: "K. Y. Srinivasan" <k...@microsoft.com>
commit 663dd6dcaf7e95526e469e91f41972a9c0cca30c upstream.
The recent changes to the connector code introduced this bug where even
when a callback was invoked, we would return an error resulting in
double freeing of the skb. This patch fixes this bug.
