/**
* skb_clone_sk - create clone of skb, and take reference to socket
* @skb: the skb to clone
*
* This function creates a clone of a buffer that holds a reference on
* sk_refcnt. Buffers created via this function are meant to be
* returned using sock_queue_err_skb, or free via kfree_skb.
*
* When passing buffers allocated with this function to sock_queue_err_skb
* it is necessary to wrap the call with sock_hold/sock_put in order to
* prevent the socket from being released prior to being enqueued on
* the sk_error_queue.
