[PATCH net 1/3] rxrpc: Fix rxrpc_input_call_event() to only unshare DATA packets

Fix rxrpc_input_call_event() to only unshare DATA packets and not ACK,
ABORT, etc..

And with that, rxrpc_input_packet() doesn't need to take a pointer to the
pointer to the packet, so change that to just a pointer.

Fixes: 1f2740150f90 ("rxrpc: Fix potential UAF after skb_unshare() failure")
Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260422161438.2593376-4-dhowells@redhat.com
