Subject: [PATCH 2/5] net: renesas: rswitch: fix leaked pointer on error path

If error path is taken while filling descriptor for a frame, skb
pointer is left in the entry. Later, on the ring entry reuse, the
same entry could be used as a part of a multi-descriptor frame,
and skb for that new frame could be stored in a different entry.

Then, the stale pointer will reach the completion routine, and passed
to the release operation.

Fix that by clearing the saved skb pointer at the error path.
