Subject: [net v5 2/3] net: sched: add check tc_skip_classify in sch egress

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

Try to resolve the issues as below:
* 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. This patch
  is useful when there are a lot of filters with different
  prio. There is ~5 prio in in production, ~1% improvement.

  Rules as below:
  $ for id in $(seq 1 5); do
  $       tc filter add ... egress prio $id ... action mirred egress redirect dev ifb0
  $ done

* bpf_redirect may be invoked in egress path. If we don't
  check the flags and then return immediately, the packets
  will loopback.

  $ tc filter add dev eth0 egress bpf direct-action obj ifb.o sec ifb
