veth: Avoid NAPI scheduling on failed SKB forwarding
When an skb fails to be forwarded to the peer(e.g., skb data buffer
length exceeds MTU), it will not be added to the peer's receive queue.
Therefore, we should schedule the peer's NAPI poll function only when
skb forwarding is successful to avoid unnecessary overhead.
