When __ip_options_compile() is called with an skb, the IP options are parsed from the skb data into the provided IP option argument. This is in contrast to the case where the skb argument is NULL and the options are parsed from opt->__data. Given that cipso_v4_error() always passes an skb to __ip_options_compile(), there is no need to allocate an extra 40 bytes (maximum IP options size). Therefore, simplify the function by removing these extra bytes and make the function similar to ipv4_send_dest_unreach() which also calls both __ip_options_compile() and __icmp_send(). This is a preparation for changing the arguments being passed to __icmp_send(). No functional changes intended.
