[PATCH net-next 1/2] ipv4: replace ip_hdr() with skb->data for optimization

[Yafang Shao <laoar.shao@gmail.com>]

In ip receive path, when ip header hasn't been pulled yet, ip_hdr() and
skb->data are pointing to the same byte.

In ip output path, when ip header is just pushed, ip_hdr() and skb->data
are pointing to the same byte.

As ip_hdr() is more expensive than using skb->data, so replace ip_hdr()
with skb->data in these situations for optimization.
