The function tipc_msg_extract() is using skb_clone() to clone inner messages from a message bundle buffer. Although this method is safe, it has an undesired effect that each buffer clone inherits the true-size of the bundling buffer. As a result, the buffer clone almost always ends up with being copied anyway by the message validation function. This makes the cloning into a sub-optimization. In this commit we take the consequence of this realization, and copy each inner message to a separately allocated buffer up front in the extraction function. As a bonus we can now eliminate the two cases where we had to copy re-routed packets that may potentially go out on the wire again.
