udp/v6: prefetch rmem_alloc in udp6_queue_rcv_skb()
very similar to commit dd99e425 ("udp: prefetch rmem_alloc in udp_queue_rcv_skb()"), this allows saving a cache miss when the BH is bottle-neck for UDP over ipv6 packet processing, e.g. for small packets when a single RX NIC ingress queue is in use. Performances under flood when multiple NIC RX queues used are unaffected, but when a single NIC rx queue is in use, this gives ~8% performance improvement.
