net: call dev_queue_xmit_nit() after skb_dst_drop()
Avoid some atomic ops on dst refcount, calling dev_queue_xmit_nit() after skb_dst_drop() in dev_hard_start_xmit(). When queueing a packet into af_packet socket, we drop dst anyway. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
