When a new skb is allocated for transmitting an xsk descriptor, i.e., for
every non-multibuf descriptor or the first frag of a multibuf descriptor,
but the descriptor is later found to have invalid options set for the TX
metadata, the new skb is never freed. This can leak skbs until the send
buffer is full which makes sending more packets impossible.
Fix this by freeing the skb in the error path if we are currently dealing
with the first frag, i.e., an skb allocated in this iteration of
xsk_build_skb.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
