net: use NUMA drop counters for softnet_data.dropped
Hosts under DOS attack can suffer from false sharing in enqueue_to_backlog() : atomic_inc(&sd->dropped). This is because sd->dropped can be touched from many cpus, possibly residing on different NUMA nodes. Generalize the sk_drop_counters infrastucture added in commit c51613fa276f ("net: add sk->sk_drop_counters") and use it to replace softnet_data.dropped with NUMA friendly softnet_data.drop_counters. This adds 64 bytes per cpu, maybe more in the future if we increase the number of counters (currently 2) per 'struct numa_drop_counters'.
