This cuts the allocation to 10%, or (under) a page in all cases.

Probably. it would be safe to use vmalloc for allocating txb anyway.
I'll give it a try.

Why it wouldn't be "safe". I suggested it to you already, since allocating 64k by kmalloc for descriptors accessed only in kernel is crud. Moreover you're mixing the buffer with its descriptors here? Or what you're considering to vmalloc?
