spin_trylock() had to go. There is no way we could keep this.

If we want to make sure dev_queue_xmit() is called from the top (no
spinlock held),
then we need a queue, serviced from another context.
This extra queueing could happen if
__this_cpu_read(softnet_data.xmit.recursion) > 0
This can be done from net/sched/act_mirred.c with no additional change
in net/core/dev.c,
and no new skb field.
