Subject: [PATCH net] virtio/vsock: fix leak due to missing skb owner

This patch sets the owner for the skb when being sent from a socket and
so solves the leak caused when virtio_transport_purge_skbs() finds
skb->sk is always NULL and therefore never matches it with the current
socket. Setting the owner upon allocation fixes this.

Fixes: 71dc9ec9ac7d ("virtio/vsock: replace virtio_vsock_pkt with sk_buff")
