Subject: [PATCH net-next 3/3] packet: use percpu mmap tx frame pending refcount

In PF_PACKET's packet mmap(), we can avoid using one atomic_inc()
and one atomic_dec() call in skb destructor and use a percpu
reference count instead in order to determine if packets are
still pending to be sent out. Micro-benchmark with [1] that has
been slightly modified (that is, protcol = 0 in socket(2) and
bind(2)), example on an i7-3520M machine:

./packet_mm_tx -s7000 -m7200 -z700000 em1, avg over 2500 runs:

With patch:    4,022,015 cyc
Without patch: 4,812,994 cyc

time ./packet_mm_tx -s64 -c10000000 em1 > /dev/null, stable:

With patch:
  real         1m32.241s
  user         0m0.287s
  sys          1m29.316s

Without patch:
  real         1m38.386s
  user         0m0.265s
  sys          1m35.572s

In function tpacket_snd(), it is okay to use packet_read_pending()
since in fast-path we short-circuit the condition already with
ph != NULL, since we have next frames to process.

In case we have MSG_DONTWAIT, we also do not execute this path as
need_wait is false here anyway, and in case of _no_ MSG_DONTWAIT
flag, it is okay to call a packet_read_pending(), because when
we ever reach that path, we're done processing frames anyway and
only look if there are skbs still outstanding to be orphaned.

The BUG_ON() in tpacket_destruct_skb() we can remove as well. It
can _only_ be set from inside tpacket_snd() path and we made
sure to increase tx_ring.pending in any case before we called
po->xmit(skb). So testing for tx_ring.pending == 0 is not too
useful. Instead, it would rather have been useful to test if
lower layers didn't orphan the skb so that we're missing ring
slots being put back to TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE. But such a bug will
be caught in user space already as we end up realizing that we do
not have any TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE slots left anymore. Therefore,
we're all set.

Btw, in case of RX_RING path, we do not make use of the pending
member, therefore we also don't need to use up any percpu memory
here.
