veth: ignore peer tx_dropped when counting local rx_dropped
When local NET_RX backlog is full due to traffic overrun, peer veth tx_dropped counter increases. At that time, list local veth stats, rx_dropped has double value of peer tx_dropped, even bigger than transmit packets by peer. In NET_RX softirq process, if any packet drop case happens, it increases dev's rx_dropped counter and returns NET_RX_DROP. At veth tx side, it records any error returned from peer netif_rx into local dev tx_dropped counter. In veth get stats process, it puts local dev rx_dropped and peer dev tx_dropped into together as local rx_drpped value. So that it shows double value of real dropped packets number in this case. This patch ignores peer tx_dropped when counting local rx_dropped, since peer tx_dropped is duplicated to local rx_dropped at most cases.
