IGMPv3/MLD packets are sent with TC_PRIO_CONTROL.
skb->priority is set immediately after skb allocation.

skb->reserved_tailroom is also set after allocation and is
used by the IGMPv3/MLD code prior to transmittion.

In order to be able to alias skb->priority and
skb->reserved_tailroom in struct sk_buff, the two fields
must not be used at the same time.

The skb->priority value is not required before the packet
is sent down the IP stack. Therefore, move setting
skb->priority prior to transmittion.
