From: Jesper Juhl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Coverity found what looks like a real leak in
net/dccp/ipv6.c::dccp_v6_do_rcv()

We may leave via the return inside "if (sk->sk_state == DCCP_OPEN) {" but
at that point we may have allocated opt_skb, but we never free it in that
path before the return.

(akpm: does opt_skb actually do anything?)
