icmp: Remove some spurious dropped packet profile hits from the ICMP path
If icmp_rcv() has successfully processed the incoming ICMP datagram, we should use consume_skb() rather than kfree_skb() because a hit on the likes of perf -e skb:kfree_skb is not called-for. Signed-off-by: Rick Jones <rick.jones2@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
