In tcp_v6_do_rcv() code, when processing pkt options, we soley work
on our skb clone opt_skb that we've created earlier before entering
tcp_rcv_established() on our way. However, only in condition ...

  if (np->rxopt.bits.rxtclass)
    np->rcv_tclass = ipv6_get_dsfield(ipv6_hdr(skb));

... we work on skb itself. As we extract every other information out
of opt_skb in ipv6_pktoptions path, this seems wrong, since skb can
already be released by tcp_rcv_established() earlier on. When we try
to access it in ipv6_hdr(), we will dereference freed skb.
