net: skb_tx_hash() fix relative to skb_orphan_try()

commit fc6055a (net: Introduce skb_orphan_try()) added early orphaning of skbs. This unfortunately added a performance regression in skb_tx_hash() in case of stacked devices (bonding, vlans, ...) Since skb->sk is now NULL, we cannot access sk->sk_hash anymore to spread tx packets to multiple NIC queues on multiqueue devices. skb_tx_hash() in this case only uses skb->protocol, same value for all flows. skb_orphan_try() can copy sk->sk_hash into skb->rxhash and skb_tx_hash() can use this saved sk_hash value to compute its internal hash value.
