Subject: [v4.3.0-rc2->3] Regression: BIG networking performance loss

With kernels vmlinuz-4.3.0-rc2-00228-gd4a748a and earlier it is no
problem for me to stream HD-videos (700-800 Kbyte/s) from YouTube.

With the same video material and kernels
vmlinuz-4.3.0-rc2-00438-gd8cc397 and later I only reach 70-80 KByte/s.
That's a one-tenth than before.
