tcp: remove prequeue support 

prequeue is a tcp receive optimization that moves part of rx processing
from bh to process context.

This only works if the socket being processed belongs to a process that
is blocked in recv on that socket.

In practice, this doesn't happen anymore that often because nowadays
servers tend to use an event driven (epoll) model.

Even normal client applications (web browsers) commonly use many tcp
connections in parallel.

This has measureable impact only in netperf (which uses plain recv and
thus allows prequeue use) from host to locally running vm (~4%), however,
there were no changes when using netperf between two physical hosts with
ixgbe interfaces.

/* Ugly... If prequeue is not empty, we have to

* 2. backlog
* 3. prequeue
* 4. receive_queue
*
* Each queue can be processed only if the next ones
* are empty. At this point we have empty receive_queue.
* But prequeue _can_ be not empty after 2nd iteration,
* when we jumped to start of loop because backlog
* processing added something to receive_queue.
* We cannot release_sock(), because backlog contains
* packets arrived _after_ prequeued ones.
*
* Shortly, algorithm is clear --- to process all
* the queues in order. We could make it more directly,
* requeueing packets from backlog to prequeue, if
* is not empty. It is more elegant, but eats cycles,
* unfortunately.
