Merge branch 'napi_page_frags'
Alexander Duyck says: ==================== net: Alloc NAPI page frags from their own pool This patch series implements a means of allocating page fragments without the need for the local_irq_save/restore in __netdev_alloc_frag. By doing this I am able to decrease packet processing time by 11ns per packet in my test environment. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
