mac80211 uses the frag list to build AMSDU. When freeing the skb, it may not be really freed, since someone is still holding a reference to it. In that case, when TCP skb is being retransmitted, the pointer to the frag list is being reused, while the data in there is no longer valid. Since we will never get frag list from the network stack, as mac80211 doesn't advertise the capability, we can safely free and nullify it before releasing the SKB.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
