Also did resize unit test:
 https://github.com/netoptimizer/prototype-kernel/commit/af0b4d7e7261e9

The parallel benchmark:
 https://github.com/netoptimizer/prototype-kernel/blob/master/kernel/lib/skb_array_parallel01.c

Have been adjusted to use the non-BH variant of the lock.  And the
parallel benchmark results, where a single producer and a single
consumer CPU runs concurrently, and the queue always partly full
(optimal case for minimize cache-contention):

On CPU i7-4790K @ 4.00GHz:
 - Enqueue 32 cycles(tsc) 8.162 ns 
 - Dequeue 33 cycles(tsc) 8.417 ns

Notice this is an extremely good concurrency results, as it is very
close to the optimal case benchmark 26 cycles, when running
enqueue+dequeue on the same CPU in a tight loop[2].
