spidernet : fix memory leak in spider_net_stop

We forget to call spider_net_free_rx_chain_contents which does the actual dev_kfree_skb. New skbs are allocated from skbuff_head_cache on each "ifconfig up" letting the cache grow infinitely. This patch fixes it. Signed-off-by: Jens Osterkamp <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <[email protected]>
