Its too easy to add thousand of UDP sockets on a particular bucket,
and slow down an innocent multicast receiver.

Early demux is supposed to be an optimization, we should avoid spending
too much time in it.

It is interesting to note __udp4_lib_demux_lookup() only tries to
match first socket in the chain.

10 is the threshold we already have in __udp4_lib_lookup() to switch
to secondary hash.

Applied and queued up for -stable, thanks Eric.
