net: Avoid modulus in skb_tx_hash() for forwarding case.

Based almost entirely upon a patch by Eric Dumazet.

The common case is to have num-tx-queues <= num_rx_queues
and even if num_tx_queues is larger it will not be significantly
larger.

Therefore, a subtraction loop is always going to be faster than
modulus.
