Hi, maintainer.
    Our code analyzer reported a double free bug,
and it is a little difficult for me to fix the intricate bug.

File: net/ipv6/ip6_tunnel.c

 In ip6_tnl_start_xmit, it calls ipxip6_tnl_xmit() and then
ipxip6_tnl_xmit calls ip6_tnl_xmit(). The skb could be freed
at line 1,213 via consume_skb(skb). If ip6_tnl_xmit() returns
an error code, the tx_err branch of ip6_tnl_start_xmit will free
the skb again.
