Subject: [PATCH] usbnet: jump to rx_cleanup case instead of calling skb_queue_tail

The current source pushes skb into dev->done queue by calling
skb_queue_tail() and then, call skb_dequeue() to pop for rx_cleanup state
to free urb and skb next in usbnet_bh().
It wastes CPU resource with extra instructions. Instead, use return values
jumping to rx_cleanup case directly to free them. Therefore calling
skb_queue_tail() and skb_dequeue() is not necessary.

The follows are just showing difference between calling skb_queue_tail()
and using return values jumping to rx_cleanup state directly in usbnet_bh()
in Arm64 instructions with perf tool.
