Just to clarify my previous comment: it was not about the
idea of adding drop_mergeable_buffer - rather, I think that
adding knowledge about mergeable buffers into page_to_skb creates an
ugly internal API.
Let's move the call to page_to_skb within receive_mergeable instead:
it's also nice that int offset = buf - page_address(page) logic
is not spread around like it was.
Also, it's not nice that we ignore length errors when we drop
packets because of OOM.
So I came up with the following - it seems to work but I didn't
stress test yet.

virtio_net: fix error handling for mergeable buffers
Eric Dumazet noticed that if we encounter an error
when processing a mergeable buffer, we don't
dequeue all of the buffers from this packet,
the result is almost sure to be loss of networking.
Jason Wang noticed that we also leak a page and that we don't decrement
the rq buf count, so we won't repost buffers (a resource leak).
