tipc: fix memory leak in tipc_link_xmit
[ Upstream commit 69ae94725f4fc9e75219d2d69022029c5b24bc9a ]
In case the backlog transmit queue for system-importance messages is overloaded,
tipc_link_xmit() returns -ENOBUFS but the skb list is not purged. This leads to
memory leak and failure when a skb is allocated.
This commit fixes this issue by purging the skb list before tipc_link_xmit()
returns.
Fixes: 365ad353c256 ("tipc: reduce risk of user starvation during link congestion")
