[Devel] [PATCH] connector: bump skb->users before callback invocation

From: Florian Westphal <fw at strlen.de>

Backport of commit 55285bf09427c5abf43ee1d54e892f352092b1f1.

Dmitry reports memleak with syskaller program.
Problem is that connector bumps skb usecount but might not invoke callback.

So move skb_get to where we invoke the callback.
