net/mlx5e: Switch to using napi_build_skb()
Use napi_build_skb() which uses NAPI percpu caches to obtain skbuff_head instead of inplace allocation. napi_build_skb() calls napi_skb_cache_get(), which returns a cached skb, or allocates a bulk of NAPI_SKB_CACHE_BULK (16) if cache is empty. Performance test: TCP single stream, single ring, single core, default MTU (1500B).
