  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.

v8: use noinline and this_cpu_inc in netdev_core_stats_inc.
v7: use WRITE_ONCE and READ_ONCE instead of '++'
v6: merge netdev_core_stats and netdev_core_stats_inc together
v5: Access the per cpu pointer before reach the relevant offset.
v4: Introduce netdev_core_stats_inc() instead of export dev_core_stats_*_inc()
v3: __cold should be added to the netdev_core_stats_alloc().
v2: use __cold instead of inline in dev_core_stats().
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230911082016.3694700-1-yajun.deng@linux.dev/
