Subject: Re: [PATCH 3/3] net: Add ftracer to help optimize process
	scheduling based on incomming frame allocations (v2)

skb allocation / consumption correlator

Add ftracer module to kernel to print out a list that correlates a process id,
an skb it read, and the numa nodes on wich the process was running when it was
read along with the numa node the skbuff was allocated on.
