net_sched: RCU conversion of stab
This patch converts stab qdisc management to RCU, so that we can perform the qdisc_calculate_pkt_len() call before getting qdisc lock. This shortens the lock's held time in __dev_xmit_skb(). This permits more qdiscs to get TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS status, avoiding lot of cache misses and so reducing latencies.
