The round-robin rr_tx_counter was shared across CPUs leading
to significant cache trashing at high packet rates. This patch
switches the round-robin mechanism to use a per-cpu counter to
decide the destination device.
On a 100Gbit 64 byte packet test this reduces the CPU load from
50% to 10% on the test system.
