Subject: [RFC] rps: shortcut net_rps_action()
net_rps_action() is a bit expensive on NR_CPUS=64..4096 kernels, even if
RPS is not active.
I add a flag to scan cpumask only if at least one IPI was scheduled.
Even cpumask_weight() might be expensive on some setups, where
nr_cpumask_bits could be very big (4096 for example)
Move all RPS logic into net_rps_action() to cleanup net_rx_action() code
(remove two ifdefs)
Move rps_remote_softirq_cpus into softnet_data to share its first cache
line, filling an existing hole.
In a future patch, we could call net_rps_action() from process_backlog()
to make sure we send IPI before handling this cpu backlog.
