Problem is that skb->destructor contains garbage, and this is
because I accidentally removed tcp_skb_tsorted_anchor_cleanup()
from tcp_unlink_write_queue()
This would trigger with a write(fd, <invalid_memory>, len) attempt,
and we will add to packetdrill this capability to avoid future
regressions.
Fixes: 75c119afe14f ("tcp: implement rb-tree based retransmit queue")

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
