The reference count held for skb needs to be released when the skb's
nfct pointer is cleared regardless of if nf_ct_delete() is called or
not.

Failing to release the skb's reference cound led to deferred conntrack
cleanup spinning forever within nf_conntrack_cleanup_net_list() when
cleaning up a network namespace:

   kworker/u16:0-19025 [004] 45981067.173642: sched_switch: kworker/u16:0:19025 [120] R ==> rcu_preempt:7 [120]
   kworker/u16:0-19025 [004] 45981067.173651: kernel_stack: <stack trace>
=> ___preempt_schedule (ffffffffa001ed36)
=> _raw_spin_unlock_bh (ffffffffa0713290)
=> nf_ct_iterate_cleanup (ffffffffc00a4454)
