wireguard: receive: drop handshakes if queue lock is contended
commit fb32f4f606c17b869805d7cede8b03d78339b50a upstream. If we're being delivered packets from multiple CPUs so quickly that the ring lock is contended for CPU tries, then it's safe to assume that the queue is near capacity anyway, so just drop the packet rather than spinning. This helps deal with multicore DoS that can interfere with data path performance. It _still_ does not completely fix the issue, but it again chips away at it.
