xsk: free the skb when hitting the upper bound MAX_SKB_FRAGS
Fix it by explicitly adding kfree_skb() before returning back to its caller. How to reproduce it in virtio_net: 1. the current skb is the first one (which means xs->skb is NULL) and hit the limit MAX_SKB_FRAGS. 2. xsk_build_skb_zerocopy() returns -EOVERFLOW. 3. the caller xsk_build_skb() clears skb by using 'skb = NULL;'. This is why bug can be triggered. 4. there is no chance to free this skb anymore. Note that if in this case the xs->skb is not NULL, xsk_build_skb() will call xsk_drop_skb(xs->skb) to do the right thing.
