In tipc_buf_append() it may change skb's frag_list, and it causes
problems when this skb is cloned. skb_unclone() doesn't really
make this skb's flag_list available to change.
Shuang Li has reported an use-after-free issue because of this
when creating quite a few macvlan dev over the same dev, where
the broadcast packets will be cloned and go up to the stack:
[ ] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in pskb_expand_head+0x86d/0xea0

So fix it by using skb_unshare() instead, which would create a new
skb for the cloned frag and it'll be safe to change its frag_list.
The similar things were also done in sctp_make_reassembled_event(),
which is using skb_copy().

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.
