Subject: [PATCH] tunnels: Optimize tx path

We currently dirty a cache line to update tunnel device stats
(tx_packets/tx_bytes). We better use the txq->tx_bytes/tx_packets
counters that already are present in cpu cache, in the cache
line shared with txq->_xmit_lock

This patch extends IPTUNNEL_XMIT() macro to use txq pointer
provided by the caller.

Also &tunnel->dev->stats can be replaced by &dev->stats
