Subject: [PATCH net] udp6: fix potential access to stale information

lena wang reported an issue caused by udpv6_sendmsg()
mangling msg->msg_name and msg->msg_namelen, which
are later read from ____sys_sendmsg() :

	/*
	 * If this is sendmmsg() and sending to current destination address was
	 * successful, remember it.
	 */
	if (used_address && err >= 0) {
		used_address->name_len = msg_sys->msg_namelen;
		if (msg_sys->msg_name)
			memcpy(&used_address->name, msg_sys->msg_name,
			       used_address->name_len);
	}

udpv6_sendmsg() wants to pretend the remote address family
is AF_INET in order to call udp_sendmsg().

A fix would be to modify the address in-place, instead
of using a local variable, but this could have other side effects.

Instead, restore initial values before we return from udpv6_sendmsg().

Fixes: c71d8ebe7a44 ("net: Fix security_socket_sendmsg() bypass problem.")
