[190/244] bridge: fix a possible use after free

[Greg KH]

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------


From: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 22df13319d1fec30b8f9bcaadc295829647109bb ]

br_multicast_ipv6_rcv() can call pskb_trim_rcsum() and therefore skb
head can be reallocated.

Cache icmp6_type field instead of dereferencing twice the struct
icmp6hdr pointer.
