net: drop skb on failure in ip_check_defrag()
Most callers of pskb_trim_rcsum() simply drop the skb when it fails, however, ip_check_defrag() still continues to pass the skb up to stack. This is suspicious. In ip_check_defrag(), after we learn the skb is an IP fragment, passing the skb to callers makes no sense, because callers expect fragments are defrag'ed on success. So, dropping the skb when we can't defrag it is reasonable. Note, prior to commit 88078d98, this is not a big problem as checksum will be fixed up anyway. After it, the checksum is not correct on failure. Found this during code review.
