[ Upstream commit e2e8009ff72ad2a795b67785f3238af152146368 ]

Commit e520af48c7e5a introduced the following bug when setting the
TCP_REPAIR sockoption:

[ 2860.657036] BUG: using __this_cpu_add() in preemptible [00000000] code: daemon/12164

Since tcp_xmit_probe_skb() can be called from process context, use
NET_INC_STATS() instead of NET_INC_STATS_BH().
