According to the description, "other" should be added when calling
qdisc_drop() to discard packets.

The fact that an old copy & pasted comment says something is not
in itself a sufficient justification to make code changes.

qdisc_drop() already counts drops, duplicating the same information
in another place seems like a waste of CPU cycles.

Hi Jakub:
Thank you for your reply. It seems more appropriate to delete the other variable, if it is unused?
