Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/3 v2] macsec: a few cleanups in the receive path

This patchset removes some unnecessary code in the receive path of the
macsec driver, and re-indents the error handling after calling
macsec_decrypt to make the post-processing clearer.

This is a combined effort of Sabrina Dubroca <sd@...asysnail.net> and me.

Change in 3/3:

The patch now only moves the IS_ERR(skb) case under the block where
macsec_decrypt() is called, but not the call to macsec_post_decrypt().
