Subject: [PATCH -next] packet: remove unused variable 'status' in __packet_lookup_frame_in_block

The variable 'status' in  __packet_lookup_frame_in_block() is never used since
introduction in commit f6fb8f100b80 ("af-packet: TPACKET_V3 flexible buffer
implementation."), we can remove it.
And when __packet_lookup_frame_in_block() calls prb_retire_current_block(), 
it can pass macro TP_STATUS_KERNEL instead of 0.
