[net-next 14/14] igb: Free any held skb that should have been timestamped on remove

From: Matthew Vick <matthew.vick@intel.com>

To prevent a race condition where an skb has been saved to return the Tx
timestamp later and the driver is removed, add a check to determine if we
have an skb stored and, if so, free it.
