Okay, sorry, here it is. But as I said, it did not help.

Subject: [patch net-next RFC] tbf: improved accuracy at high rates

Current TBF uses rate table computed by the "tc" userspace program,
which has the following issue:

The rate table has 256 entries to map packet lengths to
token (time units).  With TSO sized packets, the 256 entry granularity
leads to loss/gain of rate, making the token bucket inaccurate.

Thus, instead of relying on rate table, this patch explicitly computes
the time and accounts for packet transmission times with nanosecond
granularity.

This is a followup to 56b765b79e9a78dc7d3f8850ba5e5567205a3ecd
