Ken Steele	b076a26cdc	Replace ReleaseData function on Packet Structure with ReleasePacket. This commit allows handling Packets allocated by different methods. The ReleaseData function pointer in the Packet structure is replaced with ReleasePacket function pointer, which is then always called to release the memory associated with a Packet. Currently, the only usage of ReleaseData is in AF Packet. Previously ReleaseData was only called when it was not NULL. To implement the same functionality as before in AF Packet, a new function is defined in AF Packet to first call the AFP specific ReleaseData function and then releases the Packet structure. Three new general functions are defined for releasing packets in the default case: 1) PacketFree() - To release a packet alloced with SCMalloc() 2) PacketPoolReturnPacket() - For packets allocated from the Packet Pool. Calls RECYCLE_PACKET(p) 3) PacketFreeOrRelease() - Calls PacketFree() or PacketPoolReturnPacket() based on the PKT_ALLOC flag. Having these functions removes the need to check the PKT_ALLOC flag when releasing a packet in most cases, since the ReleasePacket function encodes how the Packet was allocated. The PKT_ALLOC flag is still set and is needed when AF Packet releases a packet, since it replaces the ReleasePacket function pointer with its own function and then calls PacketFreeOfRelease(), which uses the PKT_ALLOC flag.	13 years ago
