This does not cause any bug now because it has no users, but its body
contains two pointer definitions within a code block:

struct sk_buff *clone = _clone; \
struct sk_buff *skb = _skb; \

When calling the macro as DSA_SKB_CLONE(clone, skb), these variables
would obscure the arguments that the macro was called with, and the
initializers would be a no-op instead of doing their job (undefined
behavior, by the way, but GCC nicely puts NULL pointers instead).

So simply remove this broken macro and leave users to simply call
"DSA_SKB_CB(skb)->clone = clone" by hand when needed.

There is one functional difference when doing what I just suggested
above: the control block won't be transferred from the original skb into
the clone. Since there's no foreseen need for the control block in the
clone ATM, this is ok.

Fixes: b68b0dd0fb2d ("net: dsa: Keep private info in the skb->cb")
