tcp: remove buggy call to tcp_v6_restore_cb()

tcp_v6_send_reset() expects to receive an skb with skb->cb[] layout as used in TCP stack. MD5 lookup uses tcp_v6_iif() and tcp_v6_sdif() and thus TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->header.h6 This patch probably fixes RST packets sent on behalf of a timewait md5 ipv6 socket. Before Florian patch, tcp_v6_restore_cb() was needed before jumping to no_tcp_socket label.
