Commit Message

Syzbot reported memory leak in kcm_sendmsg()[1].
The problem was in non-freed frag_list in case of error.

In the while loop:

	if (head == skb)
		skb_shinfo(head)->frag_list = tskb;
	else
		skb->next = tskb;

frag_list filled with skbs, but nothing was freeing them.

backtrace:

Indeed. I didn't know about that. Im sorry.

I will debug this today later. I think, this commit should be reverted,
because it's broken. Or I can send next patch on top of this. What do
you think of that, David?
