tcp: remove dst refcount false sharing for prequeue mode

Browse Source 
Alexander Duyck reported high false sharing on dst refcount in tcp stack
when prequeue is used. prequeue is the mechanism used when a thread is
blocked in recvmsg()/read() on a TCP socket, using a blocking model
rather than select()/poll()/epoll() non blocking one.

We already try to use RCU in input path as much as possible, but we were
forced to take a refcount on the dst when skb escaped RCU protected
region. When/if the user thread runs on different cpu, dst_release()
will then touch dst refcount again.

Commit 093162553c (tcp: force a dst refcount when prequeue packet)
was an example of a race fix.

It turns out the only remaining usage of skb->dst for a packet stored
in a TCP socket prequeue is IP early demux.

We can add a logic to detect when IP early demux is probably going
to use skb->dst. Because we do an optimistic check rather than duplicate
existing logic, we need to guard inet_sk_rx_dst_set() and
inet6_sk_rx_dst_set() from using a NULL dst.

Many thanks to Alexander for providing a nice bug report, git bisection,
and reproducer.

Tested using Alexander script on a 40Gb NIC, 8 RX queues.
Hosts have 24 cores, 48 hyper threads.
