Replace kfree_skb() with kfree_skb_reason() in vxlan_xmit().

Reviewed-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@nvidia.com> The first reason might be useful for the bridge driver as well when there are no ports to forward the packet to (because of egress filtering for example), but we can make it more generic if / when the bridge driver is annotated.
