While doing multiple captures, I found af_packet was dirtying cache line containing its prot_hook. This slow down machines where several cpus are necessary to handle capture traffic, as each prot_hook is traversed for each packet coming in or out the host. This patches moves "struct packet_type prot_hook" to the end of packet_sock, and uses a ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp to make sure this remains shared by all cpus.
