veth: Dont kfree_skb() after dev_forward_skb()
In case of congestion, netif_rx() frees the skb, so we must assume dev_forward_skb() also consume skb. Bug introduced by commit 445409602c092 (veth: move loopback logic to common location) We must change dev_forward_skb() to always consume skb, and veth to not double free it.
