A revert is not good on arches with decent number of registers (x86_64
for example).

Maybe have some CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_{FEW|MANY}_REGISTERS is needed, (or
already exist ?)

Here is the patch to save 400 bytes on x86_32, and really speedup the
damn thing on all arches.

Thanks

[PATCH net-next-2.6] filter: optimize sk_run_filter

remove pc variable to avoid arithmetic to compute fentry at each filter
instruction. Jumps directly manipulate fentry pointer.

As the last instruction of filter[] is guaranteed to be a RETURN, and
all jumps are before the last instruction, we dont need to check filter
bounds (number of instructions in filter array) at each iteration, so we
remove it from sk_run_filter() params.

On x86_32 remove f_k var introduced in commit 57fe93b374a6b871
(filter: make sure filters dont read uninitialized memory)

Note : We could use a CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_{FEW|MANY}_REGISTERS in order to
avoid too many ifdefs in this code.

This helps compiler to use cpu registers to hold fentry and A
accumulator.

On x86_32, this saves 401 bytes, and more important, sk_run_filter()
runs much faster because less register pressure (One less conditional
branch per BPF instruction)
