xsk: fix xsk_addrs slab leak on multi-buffer error path

When xsk_build_skb() / xsk_build_skb_zerocopy() sees the first
continuation descriptor, it promotes destructor_arg from an inlined
address to a freshly allocated xsk_addrs (num_descs = 1). The counter
is bumped to >= 2 only at the very end of a successful build (by calling
xsk_inc_num_desc()).

If the build fails in between (e.g. alloc_page() returns NULL with
-EAGAIN, or the MAX_SKB_FRAGS overflow hits), we jump to free_err, skip
calling xsk_inc_num_desc() to increment num_descs and leave the half-built
skb attached to xs->skb for the app to retry. The skb now has
1) destructor_arg = a real xsk_addrs pointer,
2) num_descs = 1

If the app never retries and just close()s the socket, xsk_release()
calls xsk_drop_skb() -> xsk_consume_skb(), which decides whether to
free xsk_addrs by testing num_descs > 1:

    if (unlikely(num_descs > 1))
        kmem_cache_free(xsk_tx_generic_cache, destructor_arg);

Because num_descs is exactly 1 the branch is skipped and the
xsk_addrs object is leaked to the xsk_tx_generic_cache slab.

Fix it by directly testing if destructor_arg is still addr. Or else it
is modified and used to store the newly allocated memory from
xsk_tx_generic_cache regardless of increment of num_desc, which we
need to handle.
