Subject: Re: [RFC net-next 2/2] act_mirred: use the backlog for nested calls
 to mirred ingress

Davide,
So this would fix the false positive you are seeing i believe;
however, will it fix a real loop?
In particular I am not sure if the next packet grabbed from the
backlog will end up in the
same CPU.

cheers,
jamal
