Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: cache skb_shinfo() in skb_try_coalesce()

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

Compiler does not really know that skb_shinfo(to|from) are constants
in skb_try_coalesce(), lets cache their values to shrink code.

We might even take care of skb_zcopy() calls later.

$ size net/core/skbuff.o.before net/core/skbuff.o

  40631	   1298	      0	  41929	   a3c9	net/core/skbuff.o
