Subject: [PATCH net-next v1] xen-netback: make copy batch size configurable
Commit eb1723a29b9a ("xen-netback: refactor guest rx") refactored Rx
handling and as a result decreased max grant copy ops from 4352 to 64.
Before this commit it would drain the rx_queue (while there are
enough slots in the ring to put packets) then copy to all pages and write
responses on the ring. With the refactor we do almost the same albeit
the last two steps are done every COPY_BATCH_SIZE (64) copies.
For big packets, the value of 64 means copying 3 packets best case scenario
(17 copies) and worst-case only 1 packet (34 copies, i.e. if all frags
plus head cross the 4k grant boundary) which could be the case when
packets go from local backend process.
Instead of making it static to 64 grant copies, lets allow the user to
select its value (while keeping the current as default) by introducing
the `copy_batch_size` module parameter. This allows users to select
the higher batches (i.e. for better throughput with big packets) as it
was prior to the above mentioned commit.
