Subject: [PATCH net] rtnetlink: invoke 'cb->done' destructor before 'cb->args' reset

cb->args[2] can store the pointer to the struct fib6_walker,
allocated in inet6_dump_fib(). On the next loop iteration in
rtnl_dump_all(), 'memset(&cb, 0, sizeof(cb->args))' can reset
that pointer, leaking the memory [1].

Fix it by calling cb->done, if it is set, before filling 'cb->args'
with zeros.

Looks like the recent changes in rtnl_dump_all() contributed to
the appearance of this kmemleak [1], commit c63586dc9b3e ("net:
rtnl_dump_all needs to propagate error from dumpit function")
breaks the loop only on an error now.
