Subject: [PATCH wpan] mac802154: Fix possible double free upon parsing error

Commit 4d1c7d87030b ("mac802154: Move an skb free within the rx path")
tried to simplify error handling within the receive path by moving the
kfree_skb() call at the very end of the top-level function but missed
one kfree_skb() called upon frame parsing error. Prevent this possible
double free from happening.

Fixes: 4d1c7d87030b ("mac802154: Move an skb free within the rx path")
