[PATCH 1/2] hv_netvsc: use single existing drop path in netvsc_start_xmit

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov
Date: Wed Apr 08 2015 - 11:54:53 EST


... which validly uses dev_kfree_skb_any() instead of dev_kfree_skb().

Setting ret to -EFAULT and -ENOMEM have no real meaning here (we need to set
it to anything but -EAGAIN) as we drop the packet and return NETDEV_TX_OK
anyway.
