For memif non-zero-copy mode, there is a branch to compare the mbuf and memif buffer size during memory copying. Mbuf and memif buffer size is defined at compile time. If memif buf size <= mbuf size, add a fast Rx memory copy path by removing this branch and mbuf bulk alloc.
The removal of the branch and bulk alloc lead to considerable performance uplift.
