I'm personally not sure this patch is a win. The code churn is
significant. I understand this is for performance's sake, but I don't
see the benefit??? 

The changelog shows that perf reports slightly lower figures for
inet_gro_receive(). That is expected, as this patch move code out of
such functio. What about inet_gro_flush()/tcp_gro_receive() where such
code is moved?

Additionally the reported deltas is within noise level according to my
personal experience with similar tests.

I think we are better off without this patch.
