I doubt this produces the intended effect. Several drivers use
ndo_select_queue (such as mlx4) where there might do something special
for a few packets but end up called the default handler which
__netdev_pick_tx for most packets. So in such cases the netpolicy path
would be routinely bypassed. Maybe this code should be in
__netdev_pick_tx.
