net: make softnet_data.dropped an atomic_t
If under extreme cpu backlog pressure enqueue_to_backlog() has to drop a packet, it could do this without dirtying a cache line and potentially slowing down the target cpu. Move sd->dropped into a separate cache line, and make it atomic. In non pressure mode, this field is not touched, no need to consume valuable space in a hot cache line.
