veth: Fixing transmit return status for dropped packets
[ Upstream commit 151e887d8ff97e2e42110ffa1fb1e6a2128fb364 ] The veth_xmit function returns NETDEV_TX_OK even when packets are dropped. This behavior leads to incorrect calculations of statistics counts, as well as things like txq->trans_start updates. Fixes: e314dbdc1c0d ("[NET]: Virtual ethernet device driver.")
