From: Douglas Caetano dos Santos <douglascs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit d19b183cdc1fa3d70d6abe2a4c369e748cd7ebb8 ]
When using a TX ring buffer, if an error occurs processing a control
message (e.g. invalid message), the net_device reference is not
released.
Fixes c14ac9451c348 ("sock: enable timestamping using control messages")
