Jamal Hadi Salim 40cb2fdfed net, sched: Fix SKB_NOT_DROPPED_YET splat under debug config
Getting the following splat [1] with CONFIG_DEBUG_NET=y and this
reproducer [2]. Problem seems to be that classifiers clear 'struct
tcf_result::drop_reason', thereby triggering the warning in
__kfree_skb_reason() due to reason being 'SKB_NOT_DROPPED_YET' (0).

Fixed by disambiguating a legit error from a verdict with a bogus drop_reason

What happens is that inside most classifiers the tcf_result is copied over
from a filter template e.g. *res = f->res which then implicitly overrides
the prior SKB_DROP_REASON_TC_{INGRESS,EGRESS} default drop code which was
set via sch_handle_{ingress,egress}() for kfree_skb_reason().

Commit text above copied verbatim from Daniel. The general idea of the patch
is not very different from what Ido originally posted but instead done at the
cls_api codepath.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
