Subject: net: Avoid modulus in skb_tx_hash() for forwarding case.
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=513de11bba246b7a67df4c314d9fc936b6a75d0e;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

net: Avoid modulus in skb_tx_hash() for forwarding case.

Based almost entirely upon a patch by Eric Dumazet.

The common case is to have num-tx-queues <= num_rx_queues
and even if num_tx_queues is larger it will not be significantly
larger.

Therefore, a subtraction loop is always going to be faster than
modulus.
