Subject: hv_netvsc: Use the xmit_more skb flag to optimize signaling the host
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=82fa3c776e5abba7ed6e4b4f4983d14731c37d6a;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

hv_netvsc: Use the xmit_more skb flag to optimize signaling the host

Based on the information given to this driver (via the xmit_more skb flag),
we can defer signaling the host if more packets are on the way. This will help
make the host more efficient since it can potentially process a larger batch of
packets. Implement this optimization.
