Subject: [PATCH] igmp: check add_grhead() return value

OK, now that we aren't seeing crashes which can be attributed to these
NULL dereferences any longer.
--------------------------------------
add_grhead() allocates memory with GFP_ATOMIC and in at least two places skb
from it passed to skb_put() without checking.
