net: Avoid modulus in skb_tx_hash() for forwarding case.
Based almost entirely upon a patch by Eric Dumazet. The common case is to have num-tx-queues <= num_rx_queues and even if num_tx_queues is larger it will not be significantly larger. Therefore, a subtraction loop is always going to be faster than modulus. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
