bpf: cpumap do bulk allocation of SKBs

As cpumap now batch consume xdp_frame's from the ptr_ring, it knows how many
SKBs it need to allocate. Thus, lets bulk allocate these SKBs via
kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() API, and use the previously introduced function
build_skb_around().

Notice that the flag __GFP_ZERO asks the slab/slub allocator to clear the
memory for us. This does clear a larger area than needed, but my micro
benchmarks on Intel CPUs show that this is slightly faster due to being a
cacheline aligned area is cleared for the SKBs. (For SLUB allocator, there
is a future optimization potential, because SKBs will with high probability
originate from same page. If we can find/identify continuous memory areas
then the Intel CPU memset rep stos will have a real performance gain.)
