The error returned from __udp_enqueue_schedule_skb is ENOMEM or ENOBUFS.
For now, only ENOMEM is counted into UDP_MIB_RCVBUFERRORS in
__udp_queue_rcv_skb. UDP_MIB_RCVBUFERRORS should count all of the
failed skb because of memory errors during udp receiving, not just because of the limit of sock receive queue. We can see this
in __udp4_lib_mcast_deliver:

		nskb = skb_clone(skb, GFP_ATOMIC);

		if (unlikely(!nskb)) {
			atomic_inc(&sk->sk_drops);
			__UDP_INC_STATS(net, UDP_MIB_RCVBUFERRORS,
					IS_UDPLITE(sk));
			__UDP_INC_STATS(net, UDP_MIB_INERRORS,
					IS_UDPLITE(sk));
			continue;
		}

See, UDP_MIB_RCVBUFERRORS is increased when skb clone failed. From this
point, ENOBUFS from __udp_enqueue_schedule_skb should be counted, too.
It means that the buffer used by all of the UDP sock is to the limit, and
it ought to be counted.

The diffstat is nice, but I'm unsure we can do this kind of change
(well, I really think we should not do it): it will fool any kind of
existing users (application, scripts, admin) currently reading the
above counters and expecting UDP_MIB_RCVBUFERRORS being increased with
the existing schema.

Cheers,

Paolo
