If error path is taken while filling descriptor for a frame, skb
pointer is left in the entry. Later, on the ring entry reuse, the
same entry could be used as a part of a multi-descriptor frame,
and skb for that new frame could be stored in a different entry.

Then, the stale pointer will reach the completion routine, and passed
to the release operation.

Fix that by clearing the saved skb pointer at the error path.

Fixes: d2c96b9d5f83 ("net: rswitch: Add jumbo frames handling for TX")
