Subject: [PATCH net] sch_cake: Return __NET_XMIT_STOLEN when consuming enqueued skb

When the GSO splitting feature of sch_cake is enabled, GSO superpackets
will be broken up and the resulting segments enqueued in place of the
original skb. In this case, CAKE calls consume_skb() on the original skb,
but still returns NET_XMIT_SUCCESS. This can confuse parent qdiscs into
assuming the original skb still exists, when it really has been freed. Fix
this by adding the __NET_XMIT_STOLEN flag to the return value in this case.

Fixes: 0c850344d388 ("sch_cake: Conditionally split GSO segments")
