I think Peter was referring to tx/rx rings buffers, not sk_buffs.

They (ring buffers) are allocated with vmalloc() at driver init time.

And Tom pointed out that our rx sk_buff allocation should be using the node
of requester, no need to hardcode node number per rx queue (or per device as of today)
