idpf_ring::skb serves only for keeping an incomplete frame between
several NAPI Rx polling cycles, as one cycle may end up before
processing the end of packet descriptor. The pointer is taken from
the ring onto the stack before entering the loop and gets written
there after the loop exits. When inside the loop, only the onstack
pointer is used.
For some reason, the logics is broken in the singleq mode, where the
pointer is taken from the ring each iteration. This means that if a
frame got fragmented into several descriptors, each fragment will have
its own skb, but only the last one will be passed up the stack
(containing garbage), leaving the rest leaked.
Just don't touch the ring skb field inside the polling loop, letting
the onstack skb pointer work as expected: build a new skb if it's the
first frame descriptor and attach a frag otherwise.

It seems singlequeue mode is not really used on idpf :)

From what I know, there's currently no hardware supporting singleq mode.
I'd remove it completely, but seems like it was decided to keep it in
case someone would like to support it one day...
