4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 5edabca9d4cff7f1f2b68f0bac55ef99d9798ba4 ]

In the current DCCP implementation an skb for a DCCP_PKT_REQUEST packet
is forcibly freed via __kfree_skb in dccp_rcv_state_process if
dccp_v6_conn_request successfully returns.

However, if IPV6_RECVPKTINFO is set on a socket, the address of the skb
is saved to ireq->pktopts and the ref count for skb is incremented in
dccp_v6_conn_request, so skb is still in use. Nevertheless, it gets freed
in dccp_rcv_state_process.

Fix by calling consume_skb instead of doing goto discard and therefore
calling __kfree_skb.

Similar fixes for TCP:

fb7e2399ec17f1004c0e0ccfd17439f8759ede01 [TCP]: skb is unexpectedly freed.

simply consumed
