bpf: Run devmap xdp_prog on flush instead of bulk enqueue

This changes the devmap XDP program support to run the program when the
bulk queue is flushed instead of before the frame is enqueued. This has
a couple of benefits:

- It "sorts" the packets by destination devmap entry, and then runs the
  same BPF program on all the packets in sequence. This ensures that we
  keep the XDP program and destination device properties hot in I-cache.

- It makes the multicast implementation simpler because it can just
  enqueue packets using bq_enqueue() without having to deal with the
  devmap program at all.

The drawback is that if the devmap program drops the packet, the enqueue
step is redundant. However, arguably this is mostly visible in a
micro-benchmark, and with more mixed traffic the I-cache benefit should
win out. The performance impact of just this patch is as follows:

Using 2 10Gb i40e NIC, redirecting one to another, or into a veth interface,
which do XDP_DROP on veth peer. With xdp_redirect_map in sample/bpf, send
pkts via pktgen cmd:
./pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh -i eno1 -d $dst_ip -m $dst_mac -t 10 -s 64

There are about +/- 0.1M deviation for native testing, the performance
improved for the base-case, but some drop back with xdp devmap prog attached.

Version          | Test                           | Generic | Native | Native + 2nd xdp_prog
5.12 rc4         | xdp_redirect_map   i40e->i40e  |    1.9M |   9.6M |  8.4M
5.12 rc4         | xdp_redirect_map   i40e->veth  |    1.7M |  11.7M |  9.8M
5.12 rc4 + patch | xdp_redirect_map   i40e->i40e  |    1.9M |   9.8M |  8.0M
5.12 rc4 + patch | xdp_redirect_map   i40e->veth  |    1.7M |  12.0M |  9.4M

When bq_xmit_all() is called from bq_enqueue(), another packet will
always be enqueued immediately after, so clearing dev_rx, xdp_prog and
flush_node in bq_xmit_all() is redundant. Move the clear to __dev_flush(),
and only check them once in bq_enqueue() since they are all modified
together.

This change also has the side effect of extending the lifetime of the
RCU-protected xdp_prog that lives inside the devmap entries: Instead of
just living for the duration of the XDP program invocation, the
reference now lives all the way until the bq is flushed. This is safe
because the bq flush happens at the end of the NAPI poll loop, so
everything happens between a local_bh_disable()/local_bh_enable() pair.
However, this is by no means obvious from looking at the call sites; in
particular, some drivers have an additional rcu_read_lock() around only
the XDP program invocation, which only confuses matters further.
Cleaning this up will be done in a separate patch series.
