Re: QUESTION: can netdev_alloc_skb() errors be reduced by tuning?

Because of slab rounding, this reallocation should be done only if resulting data
portion is really smaller (50 %) than original skb.

If we're going to do this in the core then we should only do it
in the spots where the packet may be held indefinitely.
