4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jason Wang <jasowang@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 6890418bbb780f0ee9cf124055afa79777f1b4f1 ]
After a linearized packet was redirected by XDP, we should not go for
the err path which will try to pop buffers for the next packet and
increase the drop counter. Fixing this by just drop the page refcnt
for the original page.
