Subject: net: systemport: Be drop monitor friendly

From: Florian Fainelli <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit c45182eb967af11e9482168be5be41aa22e5d321 ]

Utilize dev_consume_skb_any(cb->skb) in bcm_sysport_free_cb() which is used when a TX packet is completed, as well as when the RX ring is cleaned on shutdown. None of these two cases are packet drops, so be drop monitor friendly.
