    inet: frags: get rif of inet_frag_evicting() · 399d1404

    This refactors ip_expire() since one indentation level is removed.
    
    Note: in the future, we should try hard to avoid the skb_clone()
    since this is a serious performance cost.
    Under DDOS, the ICMP message wont be sent because of rate limits.
    
    Fact that ip6_expire_frag_queue() does not use skb_clone() is
    disturbing too. Presumably IPv6 should have the same
    issue than the one we fixed in commit ec4fbd64
    ("inet: frag: release spinlock before calling icmp_send()")
