net: Use k_fifo instead of k_work in RX and TX processing
The k_work handler cannot manipulate the used k_work. This means
that it is not easy to cleanup the net_pkt because it contains
k_work in it. Because of this, use k_fifo instead between
RX thread and network driver, and between application and TX
thread.
A echo-server/client run with IPv4 and UDP gave following
results:
Using k_work
------------
TX traffic class statistics:
TC Priority Sent pkts bytes time
[0] BK (1) 21922 5543071 103 us [0->41->26->34=101 us]
[1] BE (0) 0 0 -
RX traffic class statistics:
TC Priority Recv pkts bytes time
[0] BK (0) 0 0 -
[1] BE (0) 21925 6039151 97 us [0->21->16->37->20=94 us]
Using k_fifo
------------
TX traffic class statistics:
TC Priority Sent pkts bytes time
[0] BK (1) 15079 3811118 94 us [0->36->23->32=91 us]
[1] BE (0) 0 0 -
RX traffic class statistics:
TC Priority Recv pkts bytes time
[0] BK (1) 0 0 -
[1] BE (0) 15073 4150947 79 us [0->17->12->32->14=75 us]
So using k_fifo gives about 10% better performance with same workload.
Fixes #34690
