[PATCH net-next v2 03/10] ipv6: remove daddr temp buffer in __ip6_make_skb

[Pavel Begunkov]

ipv6_push_nfrag_opts() doesn't change passed daddr, and so
__ip6_make_skb() doesn't actually need to keep an on-stack copy of
fl6->daddr. Set initially final_dst to fl6->daddr,
ipv6_push_nfrag_opts() will override it if needed, and get rid of extra
copies.
