bpf: cpumap use ptr_ring_consume_batched
Move ptr_ring dequeue outside loop, that allocate SKBs and calls network stack, as these operations that can take some time. The ptr_ring is a communication channel between CPUs, where we want to reduce/limit any cacheline bouncing. Do a concentrated bulk dequeue via ptr_ring_consume_batched, to shorten the period and times the remote cacheline in ptr_ring is read Batch size 8 is both to (1) limit BH-disable period, and (2) consume one cacheline on 64-bit archs. After reducing the BH-disable section further then we can consider changing this, while still thinking about L1 cacheline size being active.
