Yes, as recent refactoring doesn't seems big enough that the perf data is
reused for the last several releases.

As there is rebasing for the latest net-next tree, even the 'before'
might not be the same as the testing seems sensitive to other changing,
like binary size changing and page allocator changing during different
version.
So it might need both the same kernel and config for 'before' and 'after'.

Below is the the performance data for Part-1 with the latest net-next:

As there is also a 4.6->3.4 second performance change for the 'before'
part, I am not really thinking much at that.
I am guessing some timing for implementation of ptr_ring or cpu cache
cause the above performance change?
I used the same cpu for both pop and push thread, the performance change
doesn't seems to exist anymore, and the performance improvement doesn't
seems to exist anymore either:
