[PATCH net-next 2/2] net-gro: remove GRO_DROP

From: Eric Dumazet <hidden>
Date: 2021-01-08 11:39:55
Subsystem: networking drivers, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

GRO_DROP can only be returned from napi_gro_frags()
if the skb has not been allocated by a prior napi_get_frags()

Since drivers must use napi_get_frags() and test its result
before populating the skb with metadata, we can safely remove
GRO_DROP since it offers no practical use.
