It would be preferrable to disable UDP early demux for those systems
and enable it for TCP only.

Presumably you want this for performance reasons. Can you provide some
before and after numbers?

Hi Tom

We are working on UDPv6 performance issues seen on an Android ARM64 system. Adding an early demux handler (link below) for it helped to increase performance (800Mbps -> 870Mbps). This helps because Android statistics rules do multiple
socket lookup when no socket is associated with the skb.

Eric mentioned that server loads usually see more unconnected load and he preferred to turn off early demux for UDP, hence this patch. I don't have numbers
for unconnected loads as of now though.
