Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wireguard: socket: free skb in send6 when ipv6 is disabled
I got a memory leak report:
unreferenced object 0xffff8881191fc040 (size 232):
comm "kworker/u17:0", pid 23193, jiffies 4295238848 (age 3464.870s)
hex dump (first 32 bytes):

In function wg_socket_send_buffer_as_reply_to_skb() or wg_socket_send_
buffer_to_peer(), the semantics of send6() is required to free skb. But
when CONFIG_IPV6 is disable, kfree_skb() is missing. This patch adds it
to fix this bug.
