Due to retpolines, indirect calls are much more expensive than direct
calls. The filters have a select set of functions it uses for the
predicates. Instead of using function pointers to call them, create a
filter_pred_fn_call() function that uses a switch statement to call the
predicate functions directly. This gives almost a 10% speedup to the
filter logic.

Using the histogram benchmark:

Before:

 # event histogram
 #
 # trigger info: hist:keys=delta:vals=hitcount:sort=delta:size=2048 if delta > 0 [active]
 #

{ delta:        113 } hitcount:        272

After:

The peak before was 126ns per event, after the peak is 114ns, and the
fastest time went from 113ns to 103ns.
