Subject: [PATCH net 1/3] net: ipa: certain dropped packets aren't accounted for

If an RX endpoint receives packets containing status headers, and a
packet in the buffer is not dropped, ipa_endpoint_skb_copy() is
responsible for wrapping the packet data in an SKB and forwarding it
to ipa_modem_skb_rx() for further processing.

If ipa_endpoint_skb_copy() gets a null pointer from build_skb(), it
just returns early. But in the process it doesn't record that as a
dropped packet in the network device statistics.

Instead, call ipa_modem_skb_rx() whether or not the SKB pointer is
NULL; that function ensures the statistics are properly updated.

Fixes: 1b65bbcc9a710 ("net: ipa: skip SKB copy if no netdev")
