If llc_conn_state_process() sees that llc_conn_service() put the skb on
a list, it will drop one fewer references to it. This is wrong because
the current behavior is that llc_conn_service() never consumes a
reference to the skb.
The code also makes the number of skb references being dropped
conditional on which of ind_prim and cfm_prim are nonzero, yet neither
of these affects how many references are *acquired*. So there is extra
code that tries to fix this up by sometimes taking another reference.
Remove the unnecessary/broken refcounting logic and instead just add an
skb_get() before the only two places where an extra reference is
actually consumed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
