ip: apply dual loop unrolling in ip4_rewrite
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 remove hot-spot with prefetch instructions, to get throughput improvement. It brings about 7% throughput improvement and saves 28% clocks with ip4_rewrite nodes on Cortex-A72 CPUs.
