From: Menglong Dong <imagedong@xxxxxxxxxxx> Add reason for skb drops to __netif_receive_skb_core() when packet_type not found to handle the skb. For this purpose, the drop reason SKB_DROP_REASON_PTYPE_ABSENT is introduced. Take ether packets for example, this case mainly happens when L3 protocol is not supported.
