xen/netback: don't call kfree_skb() with interrupts disabled

Browse Source 
It is not allowed to call kfree_skb() from hardware interrupt
context or with interrupts being disabled. So remove kfree_skb()
from the spin_lock_irqsave() section and use the already existing
"drop" label in xenvif_start_xmit() for dropping the SKB. At the
same time replace the dev_kfree_skb() call there with a call of
dev_kfree_skb_any(), as xenvif_start_xmit() can be called with
disabled interrupts.

This is XSA-424 / CVE-2022-42328 / CVE-2022-42329.
