That's not valid kdoc. Text can be on the same line as the value only
in one-line comments. Otherwise:
	/**

You can return the reason from this function. That's the whole point of
SKB_NOT_DROPPED_YET existing and being equal to 0.

Which is not to say that I know whether the reasons are worth adding
here. We'll need to hear from bridge experts on that.
