If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Eric Dumazet [ Upstream commit 2a2a459eeeff48640dc557548ce576d666ab06ed ] napi->skb is allocated in napi_get_frags() using netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align(), with a reserve of NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN bytes. However, when such skb is recycled in napi_reuse_skb(), it ends with a reserve of NET_IP_ALIGN which is suboptimal. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S.
