[PATCH NET v3 2/7] ipv6: use skb_expand_head in ip6_finish_output2

From: Vasily Averin
Date: Mon Aug 02 2021 - 04:52:38 EST


Unlike skb_realloc_headroom, new helper skb_expand_head does not allocate
a new skb if possible.

Additionally this patch replaces commonly used dereferencing with variables.
