vxge: prefetch skb->data

Browse Source 
This patch implements prefetching of skb->data from a copy of the pointer
in the descriptor (which is already in the L1 cache at this point).  This
improves netperf rx performance (netperf -L 0,0 -c -H 192.168.254.2 -- -M
131072 -m 131072) by 4.9% on a P4 Xeon host.
