Nothing ensures that the reason is not longer than this length and
nothing ensures that this assumption remains valid as more reasons are
added.

I think "SKB_DR_MAX_LEN" can be removed completely. Pass "reason" to
this function and do "strlen(drop_reasons[reason]) + 1". Any reason it
can't work?

In which cases can this happen? Might be better to perform this
validation in net_dm_packet_trace_kfree_skb_hit() and set "cb->reason"
to "SKB_DROP_REASON_NOT_SPECIFIED" in this case. That way we don't need
to perform the validation in later code paths
