Subject: [PATCH net 2/3] sch_cake: don't call diffserv parsing code when it is
 not needed

From: Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <toke@...hat.com>

As a further optimisation of the diffserv parsing codepath, we can skip it
entirely if CAKE is configured to neither use diffserv-based
classification, nor to zero out the diffserv bits.

Fixes: c87b4ecdbe8d ("sch_cake: Make sure we can write the IP header before changing DSCP bits")
