The __send_and_alloc_skb() receives a skb ptr as a parameter but in
case it fails the skb is not valid:
- Send failed and released the skb internally.
- Allocation failed.

The current code tries to release the skb in case of failure which
causes redundant freeing.

Indeed, all of the team send functions call down into either multicast
or unicast netlink sends, which either free or consume the SKB.

Applied and queued up for -stable, thanks.
