Couple of comments that I didn't want to inline into the patch...

Not sure if that should be in net/mac80211/drop.h, or better
include/net/mac80211-drop.h or something.

We could, and perhaps should, add some prefix here, so the strings
become something like SKB_DROP_REASON_MAC80211_MONITOR_...
The only annoying thing with that is we'd probably then want to generate
the "RX_DROP_M_" prefix for the constants in the DEF() macros in the
header file, which might make elixir/ctags/... even worse - but it's
probably already pretty bad for it anyway.

This is making me think that perhaps we don't want synchronize_rcu()
inside drop_reasons_unregister_subsys(), since I have two now and also
already have an rcu_barrier() ... so maybe just document that it's
needed?

This was coded up too hastily, it should've been called
RX_DROP_M_UNEXPECTED_4ADDR.

I did wonder if we should distinguish CCMP/GCMP/... for replays, MIC
failures etc., but haven't really quite decided yet. With drop_monitor
you'd have the frame (I think?) and that makes it easy to see what it
was. It's also not really all that relevant for the drop reasons
infrastructure discussion.
