memory leak in do_ipv6_setsockopt

Hello,

The following program causes a memory leak :

// autogenerated by syzkaller (http://github.com/google/syzkaller)
#include <syscall.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <linux/in.h>
#include <linux/socket.h>

int main()
{
long r1 = syscall(SYS_socket, PF_INET6,
SOCK_STREAM|SOCK_CLOEXEC|SOCK_NONBLOCK, IPPROTO_SCTP);
const char *opt = "\x15\x53\x5e\x2d\x97\xab\xe1";
long r3 = syscall(SYS_setsockopt, r1, 0x29ul, 0x6ul, opt, 0x7ul);
return 0;
}


unreferenced object 0xffff880039a55260 (size 64):
comm "executor", pid 11746, jiffies 4298984475 (age 16.078s)

I confirmed that running this program in a loop steadily increases
number of objects in kmalloc-64 slab. The leak does not happen with
IPPROTO_TCP, so probably it is sctp-related.

On commit 31ade3b83e1821da5fbb2f11b5b3d4ab2ec39db8 (Nov 29).
