Since some refactoring in 5f5a011, ndisc_send_redirect called
ndisc_fill_redirect_hdr_option on the wrong skb, leading to data corruption or
in the worst case a panic when the skb_put failed.

I've queued this up for -stable.
I saw that this was marked as 'not applicable' in the patchwork - it
should still be applied to the net tree though. I hope my patch tag
'net/3.9' didn't cause any confusion, I meant net *and* 3.9.
