[PATCH v4] ping: Check return value of function 'ping_queue_rcv_skb'

From: Zheng Yongjun <hidden>
Date: 2021-06-08 06:29:16

Function 'ping_queue_rcv_skb' not always return success, which will
also return fail. If not check the wrong return value of it, lead
to function `ping_rcv` return success.

v2:
- use rc as return value to make code look cleaner
v3:
- delete unnecessary braces {}
v4:
- put variable 'rc' declaration at the beginning of function

YOu have chsanged the control flowe in a way that this pr_debug() can be inaccurate.
It can print when we did find a socket.

Please fix this.

Thank you.
