Sieng Piaw Liew 71ef4ec47c bmips: convert to build_skb() ...

We can increase the efficiency of rx path by using buffers to receive
packets then build SKBs around them just before passing into the network
stack. In contrast, preallocating SKBs too early reduces CPU cache
efficiency.
Performance is slightly increased but the changes allow more
potential optimizations.
