Subject: [PATCH v3] usbnet: optimize usbnet_bh() to reduce CPU load
Date:   Wed, 21 Dec 2022 16:59:24 +0900

The current source pushes skb into dev->done queue by calling
skb_queue_tail() and then pop it by calling skb_dequeue() to branch to
rx_cleanup state for freeing urb/skb in usbnet_bh(). It takes extra CPU
load, 2.21% (skb_queue_tail) as follows.

-   11.58%     0.26%  swapper          [k] usbnet_bh
   - 11.32% usbnet_bh
      - 6.43% skb_dequeue
           6.34% _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore
      - 2.21% skb_queue_tail
           2.19% _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore
      - 1.68% consume_skb
         - 0.97% kfree_skbmem
              0.80% kmem_cache_free
           0.53% skb_release_data

To reduce the extra CPU load use return values jumping to rx_cleanup
state directly to free them instead of calling skb_queue_tail() and
skb_dequeue() for push/pop respectively.

-    7.87%     0.25%  swapper          [k] usbnet_bh
   - 7.62% usbnet_bh
      - 4.81% skb_dequeue
           4.74% _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore
      - 1.75% consume_skb
         - 0.98% kfree_skbmem
              0.78% kmem_cache_free
           0.58% skb_release_data
        0.53% smsc95xx_rx_fixup

v3:
  - Replace return values with proper -ERR values in rx_process()

v2:
  - Replace goto label with return statement to reduce goto entropy
