tcp: drop dst in tcp_add_backlog()

Browse Source 
Under stress, softirq rx handler often hits a socket owned by the user,
and has to queue the packet into socket backlog.

When this happens, skb dst refcount is taken before we escape rcu
protected region. This is done from __sk_add_backlog() calling
skb_dst_force().

Consumer will have to perform the opposite costly operation.

AFAIK nothing in tcp stack requests the dst after skb was stored
in the backlog. If this was the case, we would have had failures
already since skb_dst_force() can end up clearing skb dst anyway.
