Eric Dumazet b193722731 net: reorganize sk_buff for faster __copy_skb_header()
With proliferation of bit fields in sk_buff, __copy_skb_header() became
quite expensive, showing as the most expensive function in a GSO
workload.

__copy_skb_header() performance is also critical for non GSO TCP
operations, as it is used from skb_clone()

This patch carefully moves all the fields that were not copied in a
separate zone : cloned, nohdr, fclone, peeked, head_frag, xmit_more

Then I moved all other fields and all other copied fields in a section
delimited by headers_start[0]/headers_end[0] section so that we
can use a single memcpy() call, inlined by compiler using long
word load/stores.

I also tried to make all copies in the natural orders of sk_buff,
to help hardware prefetching.

I made sure sk_buff size did not change.
