Subject: fix locking unbalance in irda_sendmsg

5b40964eadea40509d353318d2c82e8b7bf5e8a5 introduced a path where
we have a locking unbalance.  If we pass invalid flags, we unlock
a socket we never locked, resulting in this...

=====================================
[ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ]
-------------------------------------
trinity/20101 is trying to release lock (sk_lock-AF_IRDA) at:
[<ffffffffa057f001>] irda_sendmsg+0x207/0x21d [irda]
but there are no more locks to release!

other info that might help us debug this:
no locks held by trinity/20101.

stack backtrace:
Pid: 20101, comm: trinity Not tainted 2.6.39-rc3+ #3
