virtio_net: Defer skb allocation in receive path Date: Wed, 13 Jan 2010 12:53:38 -0800

virtio_net receives packets from its pre-allocated vring buffers, then it
delivers these packets to upper layer protocols as skb buffs. So it's not
necessary to pre-allocate skb for each mergable buffer, then frees extra
skbs when buffers are merged into a large packet. This patch has deferred
skb allocation in receiving packets for both big packets and mergeable buffers
to reduce skb pre-allocations and skb frees. It frees unused buffers by calling
detach_unused_buf in vring, so recv skb queue is not needed.
