I like it, i've implemented this approach in some early pre v1 versions.

But in this case, credit update logic will be changed - in current implementation

(both seqpacket and stream) credit update reply is sent when data is copied

to user's buffer(e.g. we copy data somewhere, free packet and ready to process

new packet). But if we don't touch user's buffer and keeping incoming packet in rx queue

until whole record is ready, when to send credit update?
