Subject: net-zerocopy: use vm_insert_pages() for tcp rcv zerocopy
Use vm_insert_pages() for tcp receive zerocopy. Spin lock cycles (as
reported by perf) drop from a couple of percentage points to a fraction of
a percent. This results in a roughly 6% increase in efficiency, measured
roughly as zerocopy receive count divided by CPU utilization.
The intention of this patchset is to reduce atomic ops for tcp zerocopy
receives, which normally hits the same spinlock multiple times
consecutively.
