[PATCH RFC 4/4] net: tap: track dropped skb via kfree_skb_reason()

[Dongli Zhang]

The TAP can be used as vhost-net backend. E.g., the tap_handle_frame() is
the interface to forward the skb from TAP to vhost-net/virtio-net.

However, there are many "goto drop" in the TAP driver. Therefore, the
kfree_skb_reason() is involved at each "goto drop" to help userspace
ftrace/ebpf to track the reason for the loss of packets.
