Similar to skb_unref(), add skb_data_unref() to save an expensive
atomic operation (and cache line dirtying) when last reference
on shinfo->dataref is released.
I saw this opportunity on hosts with RAW sockets accidentally
bound to UDP protocol, forcing an skb_clone() on all received packets.
These RAW sockets had their receive queue full, so all clone
packets were immediately dropped.
When UDP recvmsg() consumes later the original skb, skb_release_data()
is hitting atomic_sub_return() quite badly, because skb->clone
has been set permanently.
Note that this patch helps TCP TX performance, because
TCP stack also use (fast) clones.
This means that at least one of the two packets (the main skb or
its clone) will no longer have to perform this atomic operation
in skb_release_data().
