[PATCH] Free skb at error context in auditd_send_unicast_skb().

[Masami Ichikawa]

I got following memory leak reports by kmemleak.

unreferenced object 0xffff965962fa0600 (size 256):
  comm "auditd", pid 401, jiffies 4294671604 (age 62.331s)

These skb objects have been allocated in audit_replace().
If some error happened in auditd_send_unicast_skb(), skb is needed
to be freed.
