tunnel: eliminate recursion field

It seems recursion field from "struct ip_tunnel" is not anymore needed.
recursion prevention is done at the upper level (in dev_queue_xmit()),
since we use HARD_TX_LOCK protection for tunnels.

This avoids a cache line ping pong on "struct ip_tunnel" : This structure
should be now mostly read on xmit and receive paths.

solution, but it supposes maintaing new variable in ALL
skb, even if no tunneling is used.
Current solution: t->recursion lock breaks dead loops. It looks
like dev->tbusy flag, but I preferred new variable, because
the semantics is different. One day, when hard_start_xmit
will be multithreaded we will have to use skb->encapsulation.
Current solution: HARD_TX_LOCK lock breaks dead loops.
