udp: intoduce udp_encap_needed static_key
Most machines dont use UDP encapsulation (L2TP) Adds a static_key so that udp_queue_rcv_skb() doesnt have to perform a test if L2TP never setup the encap_rcv on a socket. Idea of this patch came after Simon Horman proposal to add a hook on TCP as well. If static_key is not yet enabled, the fast path does a single JMP . When static_key is enabled, JMP destination is patched to reach the real encap_type/encap_rcv logic, possibly adding cache misses.
