This avoids an indirect call per RX IPv6/IPv4 packet.
Note that we don't want to use the indirect calls helper for taps.

IPv4 has ip_list_rcv() and IPv6 has ipv6_list_rcv(),
so the code  invoking ->list_func() should run,
meaning this part of the patch was not needed.

if (pt_prev->list_func != NULL)
    pt_prev->list_func(head, pt_prev, orig_dev);

Maybe you want instead have INDIRECT_CALL_INET() for the list_func() calls.
