6lowpan: Fix fragmentation with link-local compressed addresses
When a new 6lowpan fragment is received, a skbuff is allocated for the reassembled packet. However when a 6lowpan packet compresses link-local addresses based on link-layer addresses, the processing function relies on the skb mac control block to find the related link-layer address. This patch copies the control block from the first fragment into the newly allocated skb to keep a trace of the link-layer addresses in case of a link-local compressed address.
