net: bonding: Use per-cpu rr_tx_counter
The round-robin rr_tx_counter was shared across CPUs leading to significant cache thrashing at high packet rates. This patch switches the round-robin packet counter to use a per-cpu variable to decide the destination slave. On a test with 2x100Gbit ICE nic with pktgen_sample_04_many_flows.sh (-s 64 -t 32) the tx rate was 19.6Mpps before and 22.3Mpps after this patch.
