[RFC PATCH] net, rps: bypass enqueue_to_backlog()

[Zhi Yong Wu <zwu.kernel@gmail.com>]

From: Zhi Yong Wu <wuzhy@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

When local cpu is just target cpu which will handle network soft irq,
the packet should be directly injected to network stack, by bypassing
enqueue_to_backlog(), it can speed up the packet processing.

HI, guys

I checked the first several versions of RPS patch which seemed to have
this condition determination, but why was it removed later? Do i miss
anything? if yes, please correct me, thanks.
