Subject: rxrpc: Fix UAF in rxgk_issue_challenge()

From: David Howells <dhowells at redhat.com>

commit 107a4cb0d47e735830f852d83970d5c81f8e1e08 upstream.

Fix rxgk_issue_challenge() to free the page containing the challenge
content after invoking the tracepoint as the whdr passed to the tracepoint
points into the page just freed.
