sch_atm returns this when TC_ACT_SHOT classification occurs.

But all other schedulers that use tc_classify
(htb, hfsc, drr, fq_codel ...) return NET_XMIT_SUCCESS | __BYPASS
in this case so just do that in atm.

Yes, but it's been like this for two decades.

One of the points of my reply to the previous version of this
patch is that indeed it is explicitly returned, intentionally.

I think this is a leftover from CONFIG_NET_CLS_POLICE removal.

BTW, probably TC_POLICE_* can be removed together.
