[ROSE]: Fix dereference of skb pointer after free.
If rose_route_frame return success we'll dereference a stale pointer. Likely this is only going to result in bad statistics for the ROSE interface. This fixes coverity 946. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
