The state transition code from incomplete to invalid via neigh_update()
is missing the proper clean up of skb queue. Separate the clean up
code from neigh_timer_handler() to a new function and make neigh_update()
is it also.

You don't need to resend, you're in the queue already:

I looking at the queue, but somehow missed the netdev project
even though it's right there in the main page.

Sorry.
