Subject: [PATCH v2 net 2/3] ipv6: fix possible UAF in ip6_finish_output2()

If skb_expand_head() returns NULL, skb has been freed
and associated dst/idev could also have been freed.

We need to hold rcu_read_lock() to make sure the dst and
associated idev are alive.

Fixes: 5796015fa968 ("ipv6: allocate enough headroom in ip6_finish_output2()")
