Subject: net: qualcomm: rmnet: Fix leak on transmit failure
From: Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan <subashab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit c20a548792f15f8d8e38cd74356301c6db0d241f ]
If a skb in transmit path does not have sufficient headroom to add
the map header, the skb is not sent out and is never freed.
