these all seem to be single-packet processing latencies - it would be
quite hard to make those codepaths preemptible.
i'd suggest to turn off things like netfilter and ip_conntrack (and
other optional networking features that show up in the trace), they can
only increase latency:
00000001 0.016ms (+0.000ms): ip_rcv (netif_receive_skb)
00000001 0.019ms (+0.002ms): nf_hook_slow (ip_rcv)
00000002 0.019ms (+0.000ms): nf_iterate (nf_hook_slow)
00000002 0.021ms (+0.001ms): ip_conntrack_defrag (nf_iterate)
00000002 0.022ms (+0.000ms): ip_conntrack_in (nf_iterate)
00000002 0.022ms (+0.000ms): ip_ct_find_proto (ip_conntrack_in)
00000103 0.023ms (+0.000ms): __ip_ct_find_proto (ip_ct_find_proto)
00000102 0.024ms (+0.000ms): local_bh_enable (ip_ct_find_proto)
00000002 0.025ms (+0.001ms): tcp_error (ip_conntrack_in)
