Subject: [PATCH 15/41] net/packet: fix missing net_device reference release

From: Douglas Caetano dos Santos <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 12 May 2017 15:19:15 -0300

[ Upstream commit d19b183cdc1fa3d70d6abe2a4c369e748cd7ebb8 ]

When using a TX ring buffer, if an error occurs processing a control
message (e.g. invalid message), the net_device reference is not
released.

Fixes c14ac9451c348 ("sock: enable timestamping using control messages")
