netrom: Fix a memory leak in nr_heartbeat_expiry()

Browse Source 
syzbot reported a memory leak in nr_create() [0].

Commit 409db27e3a ("netrom: Fix use-after-free of a listening socket.")
added sock_hold() to the nr_heartbeat_expiry() function, where
a) a socket has a SOCK_DESTROY flag or
b) a listening socket has a SOCK_DEAD flag.

But in the case "a," when the SOCK_DESTROY flag is set, the file descriptor
has already been closed and the nr_release() function has been called.
So it makes no sense to hold the reference count because no one will
call another nr_destroy_socket() and put it as in the case "b."

nr_connect
  nr_establish_data_link
    nr_start_heartbeat

nr_release
  switch (nr->state)
  case NR_STATE_3
    nr->state = NR_STATE_2
    sock_set_flag(sk, SOCK_DESTROY);

                        nr_rx_frame
                          nr_process_rx_frame
                            switch (nr->state)
                            case NR_STATE_2
                              nr_state2_machine()
                                nr_disconnect()
                                  nr_sk(sk)->state = NR_STATE_0
                                  sock_set_flag(sk, SOCK_DEAD)

                        nr_heartbeat_expiry
                          switch (nr->state)
                          case NR_STATE_0
                            if (sock_flag(sk, SOCK_DESTROY) ||
                               (sk->sk_state == TCP_LISTEN
                                 && sock_flag(sk, SOCK_DEAD)))
                               sock_hold()  // ( !!! )
                               nr_destroy_socket()

To fix the memory leak, let's call sock_hold() only for a listening socket.
