soreuseport: Fix socket selection for SO_INCOMING_CPU.



Kazuho Oku reported that setsockopt(SO_INCOMING_CPU) does not work
with setsockopt(SO_REUSEPORT) since v4.6.

With the combination of SO_REUSEPORT and SO_INCOMING_CPU, we could
build a highly efficient server application.

setsockopt(SO_INCOMING_CPU) associates a CPU with a TCP listener
or UDP socket, and then incoming packets processed on the CPU will
likely be distributed to the socket.  Technically, a socket could
even receive packets handled on another CPU if no sockets in the
reuseport group have the same CPU receiving the flow.

The logic exists in compute_score() so that a socket will get a higher
score if it has the same CPU with the flow.  However, the score gets
ignored after the blamed two commits, which introduced a faster socket
selection algorithm for SO_REUSEPORT.

This patch introduces a counter of sockets with SO_INCOMING_CPU in
a reuseport group to check if we should iterate all sockets to find
a proper one.  We increment the counter when

  * calling listen() if the socket has SO_INCOMING_CPU and SO_REUSEPORT

  * enabling SO_INCOMING_CPU if the socket is in a reuseport group

Also, we decrement it when

  * detaching a socket out of the group to apply SO_INCOMING_CPU to
    migrated TCP requests

  * disabling SO_INCOMING_CPU if the socket is in a reuseport group

When the counter reaches 0, we can get back to the O(1) selection
algorithm.

The overall changes are negligible for the non-SO_INCOMING_CPU case,
and the only notable thing is that we have to update sk_incomnig_cpu
under reuseport_lock.  Otherwise, the race prevents transitioning to
the O(n) algorithm and results in the wrong socket selection.
