[PATCH net-next 01/19] net: tcp: introduce tcp_drop_reason()

From: menglong8 . dong

From: Menglong Dong <imagedong@xxxxxxxxxxx>

For TCP protocol, tcp_drop() is used to free the skb when it needs
to be dropped. To make use of kfree_skb_reason() and collect drop
reasons, introduce the function tcp_drop_reason().

tcp_drop_reason() will finally call kfree_skb_reason() and pass the
drop reason to 'kfree_skb' tracepoint.

PS: __kfree_skb() was used in tcp_drop(), I'm not sure if it's ok
to replace it with kfree_skb_reason().
