bpf, sockmap: On receive programs try to fast track SK_PASS ingress

When we receive an skb and the ingress skb verdict program returns
SK_PASS we currently set the ingress flag and put it on the workqueue
so it can be turned into a sk_msg and put on the sk_msg ingress queue.
Then finally telling userspace with data_ready hook.

Here we observe that if the workqueue is empty then we can try to
convert into a sk_msg type and call data_ready directly without
bouncing through a workqueue. Its a common pattern to have a recv
verdict program for visibility that always returns SK_PASS. In this
case unless there is an ENOMEM error or we overrun the socket we
can avoid the workqueue completely only using it when we fall back
to error cases caused by memory pressure.

By doing this we eliminate another case where data may be dropped
if errors occur on memory limits in workqueue.
