Subject: [PATCH] net: use jump_label to shortcut RPS if not setup

Most machines dont use RPS/RFS, and pay a fair amount of instructions in
netif_receive_skb() / get_rps_cpu() just to discover RPS/RFS is not
setup.

Add a jump_label named rps_needed.

If no device rps_map or global rps_sock_flow_table is setup,
netif_receive_skb() does a single instruction instead of many ones,
including conditional jumps.

jmp +0    (if CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=y)
