net: ipv6: Add early demux handler for UDP unicast
While running a single stream UDPv6 test, we observed that amount
of CPU spent in NET_RX softirq was much greater than UDPv4 for an
equivalent receive rate. The test here was run on an ARM64 based
Android system. On further analysis with perf, we found that UDPv6
was spending significant time in the statistics netfilter targets
which did socket lookup per packet. These statistics rules perform
a lookup when there is no socket associated with the skb. Since
there are multiple instances of these rules based on UID, there
will be equal number of lookups per skb.
By introducing early demux for UDPv6, we avoid the redundant lookups.
This also helped to improve the performance (800Mbps -> 870Mbps) on a
CPU limited system in a single stream UDPv6 receive test with 1450
byte sized datagrams using iperf.
