[PATCH] IPv6/DCCP: Fix memory leak in dccp_v6_do_rcv()

[Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@gmail.com>]

Coverity found what looks like a real leak in net/dccp/ipv6.c::dccp_v6_do_rcv()

We may leave via the return inside "if (sk->sk_state == DCCP_OPEN) {"
but at that point we may have allocated opt_skb, but we never free it
in that path before the return.
