syzbot reported the splat below. [0]
Since the cited commit, the child socket inherits all fields
of its parent socket unless explicitly cleared.
syzbot set IP_OPTIONS to AF_INET6 socket and created a child
socket inheriting inet_sk(sk)->inet_opt.
sctp_v6_copy_ip_options() only clones np->opt, and leaving
inet_opt results in double-free.
Let's clear inet_opt in sctp_v6_copy_ip_options().
