Subject: [RFC PATCH net-next 3/3] net: use listified RX for handling
GRO_NORMAL skbs
When GRO decides not to coalesce a packet, in napi_frags_finish(), instead
of passing it to the stack immediately, place it on a list in the napi
struct. Then, at flush time (napi_complete_done() or napi_poll()), call
netif_receive_skb_list_internal() on the list. We'd like to do that in
napi_gro_flush(), but it's not called if !napi->gro_bitmask, so we have to
do it in the callers instead. (There are a handful of drivers that call
napi_gro_flush() themselves, but it's not clear why, or whether this will
affect them.)
Because a full 64 packets is an inefficiently large batch, also consume the
list whenever it exceeds gro_normal_batch, a new net/core sysctl that
defaults to 8.
