[BR_NETFILTER]: Fix leak if skb traverses > 1 bridge
Call nf_bridge_put() before allocating a new nf_bridge structure and potentially overwriting the pointer to a previously allocated one. This fixes a memory leak which can occur when the bridge topology allows for an skb to traverse more than one bridge.
