neigh: optimize neigh_parms_release()
In neigh_parms_release() we loop over all entries to find the entry given in
argument and being able to remove it from the list. By using a double linked
list, we can avoid this loop.
Here are some numbers with 30 000 dummy interfaces configured:
Before the patch:
$ time rmmod dummy
real 2m0.118s
user 0m0.000s
sys 1m50.048s
After the patch:
$ time rmmod dummy
real 1m9.970s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m47.976s
