Hello! Thanks for quick reply. Yes, moreover  in case of SEQPACKET 'skb_pull()' must be called
every time when skbuff was removed from queue - it doesn't matter did we copy data from, get
error on memcpy_to_msg(), or just drop it - otherwise we get leak of 'rx_bytes'.

Also in case of STREAM, skb_pull() must be called for the rest of data in skbuff in case of error,
because again - 'rx_bytes' will leak.

I think, i'll prepare fixes and tests for this case in the next week

Thanks, Arseniy
