Subject: [PATCH] ax25: Fix possible oops in ax25_make_new

In ax25_make_new, if kmemdup of digipeat returns an error, there would
be an oops in sk_free while calling sk_destruct, because sk_protinfo
is NULL at the moment; move sk->sk_destruct initialization after this.

BTW of reported-by: Bernard Pidoux F6BVP <f6bvp@...e.fr>
