Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: fix kfree_skb_list use of skb_mark_not_on_list

A bug was introduced by commit eedade12f4cb ("net: kfree_skb_list use
kmem_cache_free_bulk"). It unconditionally unlinked the SKB list via
invoking skb_mark_not_on_list().

The skb_mark_not_on_list() should only be called if __kfree_skb_reason()
returns true, meaning the SKB is ready to be free'ed, as it calls/check
skb_unref().

This is needed as kfree_skb_list() is also invoked on skb_shared_info
frag_list. A frag_list can have SKBs with elevated refcnt due to cloning
via skb_clone_fraglist(), which takes a reference on all SKBs in the
list. This implies the invariant that all SKBs in the list must have the
same refcnt, when using kfree_skb_list().
