ip: apply dual loop unrolling in ip4_input
Too many prefetches within loop unrollings induce bottleneck and
performance degradation on some CPUs which have less cache line fill
buffers, e.g, Arm Cortex-A72.
Apply dual loop unrolling and tune prefetches manually to resolve
hot-spot with prefetch instructions.
It saves about 11.5% cycles with ip4_input node on Cortex-A72 CPUs.
Type: feature
