vhost_net: try batch dequing from skb array
We used to dequeue one skb during recvmsg() from skb_array, this could
be inefficient because of the bad cache utilization and spinlock
touching for each packet. This patch tries to batch them by calling
batch dequeuing helpers explicitly on the exported skb array and pass
the skb back through msg_control for underlayer socket to finish the
userspace copying. Batch dequeuing is also the requirement for more
batching improvement on receive path.
Tests were done by pktgen on tap with XDP1 in guest. Host is Intel(R)
Xeon(R) CPU E5-2650 0 @ 2.00GHz.
