commit f63c2c2032c2e3caad9add3b82cc6e91c376fd26 upstream.

The commit referenced below moved the invocation past the "next" label,
without any explanation. In fact this allows misbehaving backends undue
control over the domain the frontend runs in, as earlier detected errors
require the skb to not be freed (it may be retained for later processing
via xennet_move_rx_slot(), or it may simply be unsafe to have it freed).

This is CVE-2022-33743 / XSA-405.
