Out of sheer ignorance on my side, don't we have a bad reference
accounting if e.g.:

- uarg is attached to multiple skbs, each holding a ref, 
- there is a failure on 'getfrag()'

Such failure will release 2 references (1 kfree_skb(), and another in
the above sock_zerocopy_put_abort(), as the count is still positive).

Cheers,

Paolo
