Subject: [0/4] GRO optimisations

Hi Dave:

This is a dump of my current patches to optimise GRO in order
to get cxgb3 performance back up to the LRO level.  I've got
some more ideas but I'd like to get this out first so it doesn't
rot in my tree.

Oh and of course a direct LRO comparison isn't exactly fair because
LRO skipped some tests such as checking the IP header checksum
(naughty :) so the current 5.7 vs. 6.1 figure isn't all that bad.

But I think we should be able to get back to 6Gb/s with cxgb3
at least.

Cheers,
