In rxe_send() a ref is taken on the qp to keep it alive until the
kfree_skb() has a chance to call the skb destructor rxe_skb_tx_dtor()
which drops the reference. If the packet has an incorrect protocol
the error path just calls kfree_skb() which will call the destructor
which will drop the ref. Currently the driver also calls rxe_put()
which is incorrect. Additionally since the packets sent to rxe_send()
are under the control of the driver and it only ever produces
IPV4 or IPV6 packets the simplest fix is to remove all the code in
this block.
