Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] ibmveth RR performance

Hello!

This patchset aims to increase the ibmveth drivers small packet
request response rate.

These 2 patches address:
1. NAPI rescheduling technique
2. Driver-side processing of small packets

Testing over several netperf tcp_rr connections, we saw a
30% increase in transactions per second. No regressions
were observed in other workloads.

Please let me know if there are any questions/concerns.

Thanks,
  Nick Child
