net: Fix memory leak in the proto_register function
If the slub allocator is used, kmem_cache_create() may merge two or more kmem_cache's into one but the cache name pointer is not updated and kmem_cache_name() is no longer guaranteed to return the pointer passed to the former function. This patch stores the kmalloc'ed pointers in the corresponding request_sock_ops and timewait_sock_ops structures.
