Davide Caratti 9174c3df1c net/sched: act_tunnel_key: fix memory leak in case of action replace
running the following TDC test cases:

 7afc - Replace tunnel_key set action with all parameters
 364d - Replace tunnel_key set action with all parameters and cookie

it's possible to trigger kmemleak warnings like:

  unreferenced object 0xffff94797127ab40 (size 192):
  comm "tc", pid 3248, jiffies 4300565293 (age 1006.862s)
  hex dump (first 32 bytes):

when the tunnel_key action is replaced, the kernel forgets to release the
dst metadata: ensure they are released by tunnel_key_init(), the same way
it's done in tunnel_key_release().

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
