af_packet: do not call packet_read_pending() from tpacket_destruct_skb()

[ Upstream commit 581073f626e387d3e7eed55c48c8495584ead7ba ]

trafgen performance considerably sank on hosts with many cores
after the blamed commit.

packet_read_pending() is very expensive, and calling it
in af_packet fast path defeats Daniel intent in commit
b013840810c2 ("packet: use percpu mmap tx frame pending refcount")

tpacket_destruct_skb() makes room for one packet, we can immediately
wakeup a producer, no need to completely drain the tx ring.

Fixes: 89ed5b519004 ("af_packet: Block execution of tasks waiting for transmit to complete in AF_PACKET")
