Although there is a kfree_skb_reason() helper function that can be used to find the reason why this skb is dropped, but most callers didn't increase one of rx_dropped, tx_dropped, rx_nohandler and rx_otherhost_dropped. For the users, people are more concerned about why the dropped in ip is increasing. Introduce netdev_core_stats_inc() for trace the caller of dev_core_stats_*_inc(). Also, add __code to netdev_core_stats_alloc(), as it's called with small probability. And add noinline make sure netdev_core_stats_inc was never inlined.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
