Current the SKBTX_DEV_ZEROCOPY is set unconditionally after zerocopy_sg_from_iovec(), this would lead NULL pointer when macvtap fails to build zerocopy skb because destructor_arg was not initialized. Solve this by set this flag after the skb were built successfully. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang Signed-off-by: Michael S.
