bridge: fix a possible use after free
br_multicast_ipv6_rcv() can call pskb_trim_rcsum() and therefore skb head can be reallocated. Cache icmp6_type field instead of dereferencing twice the struct icmp6hdr pointer. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
