Subject: [PATCH 4.14 042/185] ppp: Fix memory leak in ppp_write

From: Takeshi Misawa <jeliantsurux@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 4c247de564f1ff614d11b3bb5313fb70d7b9598b ]

When ppp is closing, __ppp_xmit_process() failed to enqueue skb
and skb allocated in ppp_write() is leaked.

syzbot reported :

Fix this by freeing skb, if ppp is closing.
