With IPOIB, the neigh_cleanup purges references to the neigh when it liberates the SKBs in the neigh resolution TX backlog during ipoib_neigh_free(). Therefore, with your change, IPOIB neighs will never be destroyed if they have any SKBs in their neigh resolution queues. I'm not applying this, it's buggy.

Oh yes indeed, so we will need to address that dependency too when coming to fix the ipoib neigh related races, thanks for spotting this over.

Or.
