The commit 83ada39bb79d ("net: factor out a helper to decrement the skb refcount") provided and used a helper for decrementing skb usage, but I missed at least a spot for it.
This change remove some more duplicated code reusing skb_unref() in napi_consume_skb(), too. The helper uses an additional, unneeded unlikely(!skb) test - napi_consume_skb() already check it a few lines above - but the compiler is smart enough to optimize the duplicated test out.
