bridge: Fix memory leak when doing 'fdb get'

With the following command sequence:

ip link add br0 up type bridge
ip link add dummy0 up address 02:00:00:00:00:01 master br0 type dummy
bridge fdb get 02:00:00:00:00:01 br br0

when running the last command under valgrind, it reports

32,768 bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 2 of 2

Free the answer obtained from rtnl_talk().
