skb: Add tracepoints to freeing skb
This patch adds tracepoint to consume_skb and add trace_kfree_skb
before __kfree_skb in skb_free_datagram_locked and net_tx_action.
Combinating with tracepoint on dev_hard_start_xmit, we can check
how long it takes to free transmitted packets. And using it, we can
calculate how many packets driver had at that time. It is useful when
a drop of transmitted packet is a problem.
