From: Wei Xu wexu@redhat.com
[ Upstream commit c33ee15b3820a03cf8229ba9415084197b827f8c ]
tun_recvmsg() supports accepting skb by msg_control after commit ac77cfd4258f ("tun: support receiving skb through msg_control"), the skb if presented should be freed no matter how far it can go along, otherwise it would be leaked.
This patch fixes several missed cases.
