Eric Leblond 315c29a8e6 ebpf: change the logic to avoid ktime usage
Kernel time is not available (and/or costly) on NIC such as
Netronome so we update the logic to detect dead flows based on a
lack of update of packets counters. This way, the XDP filter will
be usable by network card.

This patch also updates the ebpf code to support per CPU and
regular mapping. Netronome is not supporting it and the structure
is using atomic for counter so the cost of simultaneous update
is really low.

This patch also updates the xdp_filter to be able to select if the
flow table is per CPU on shared. Second option will be used for
hardward offload. To deactivate the per cpu hash, you need to set
USE_PERCPU_HASH to 0.

This patch also adds an new option to af-packet named no-percpu-hash
If this option is set to yes then the Flow bypassed manager thread
will use one CPU instead of the number of cores. By doing that
we are able to handle the case where USE_PERCPU_HASH is unset (so
hardware offload for Netronome).

This patch also remove aligment indications in the eBPF filter. This
was not really needed and it seems it is causing problem with
some recent version of LLVM toolchain.
