[PATCH] net: xfrm: fix memory leak in xfrm_user_rcv_msg

[Pavel Skripkin]

Syzbot reported memory leak in xfrm_user_rcv_msg(). The
problem was is non-freed skb's frag_list.

In skb_release_all() skb_release_data() will be called only
in case of skb->head != NULL, but netlink_skb_destructor()
sets head to NULL. So, allocated frag_list skb should be
freed manualy, since consume_skb() won't take care of it

Fixes: 5106f4a8acff ("xfrm/compat: Add 32=>64-bit messages translator")
Reported-and-tested-by: syzbot+fb347cf82c73a90efcca@syzkaller.appspotmail.com

One thing I'm not sure about is did I choose the rigth
place to free this skb, maybe we can move this clean up
a little bit deeper, like in xfrm_alloc_userspi()?
