Subject: [PATCH] net: sched: check tc_skip_classify as far as possible

From: Tonghao Zhang <xiangxia.m.yue@...il.com>

We look up and then check tc_skip_classify flag in net
sched layer, even though skb don't want to be classified.
That case may consume a lot of cpu cycles.

Install the rules as below:
$ for id in $(seq 1 100); do
$ 	tc filter add ... egress prio $id ... action mirred egress redirect dev ifb0
$ done

netperf:
$ taskset -c 1 netperf -t TCP_RR -H ip -- -r 32,32
$ taskset -c 1 netperf -t TCP_STREAM -H ip -- -m 32

Without this patch:
10662.33 tps
108.95 Mbit/s

With this patch:
12434.48 tps
145.89 Mbit/s

For TCP_RR, there are 16.6% improvement, TCP_STREAM 33.9%.
