With netperf (64KB send buffer) and with e1000e driver, I get 13%
improvement with v3 of this patch.
When I run netserver and netperf on separate cpus with taskset, I get
7% improvement.

Tested-by: Vijay Subramanian <subramanian.vijay@...il.com>


FYI, checkpatch complained about this patch with 4 lines over 80
characters (which probably be ignored I think) and one
trailing space error.

ERROR: trailing whitespace
#443: FILE: net/ipv4/raw.c:139:
