[PATCH net] net: qualcomm: rmnet: Fix use after free while sending command ack

[Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan <subashab@codeaurora.org>]

When sending an ack to a command packet, the skb is still referenced
after it is sent to the real device. Since the real device could
free the skb, the device pointer would be invalid.
