Yes, the filter code wan run in parallel with no particular slowdown,
since code and bpf data is shared by all cpus (no writes)

But its rather important for performance that each cpu store packets
into its own packet socket or ring buffer, to avoid false sharing
slowdowns.

With such a setup (split packets to four cpus, then make sure one cpu
deliver packets to one particular PACKET socket/ring buffer), it should
really be fast enough.
