When we corking sub-datagrams, we do not clone skb->dst for sub-datagrams
other than the first one, so we get oops if we have multiple sub-datagrams
here.

One possible way to fix this is to clone skb->dst for all sub-datagrams,
but we do not take this approach because skb->dst is not used in other
places and it is more natural to increment statistics once per a datagram.

Also applicable for stable releases.
