Currently qdisc ingress handling (sch_handle_ingress()) doesn't set a return value and it is left to the old return value of the caller (__netif_receive_skb_core()) which is RX drop, so if the packet is consumed, caller will stop and return this value as if the packet was dropped. This causes a problem in the kernel tcp stack when having a egress tc rule forwarding to a ingress tc rule. The tcp stack sending packets on the device having the egress rule will see the packets as not successfully transmitted (although they actually were), will not advance it's internal state of sent data, and packets returning on such tcp stream will be dropped by the tcp stack with reason ack-of-unsent-data. See reproduction in [0] below. Fix that by setting the return value to RX success if the packet was handled successfully.
