Subject: [ROSE] Fix dereference of skb pointer after free.

From: Ralf Baechle <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2006 14:36:14 +0100

If rose_route_frame return success we'll dereference a stale pointer.
Likely this is only going to result in bad statistics for the ROSE
interface.

This fixes coverity 946.
