compare_ether_header() can have a special implementation on 64 bit arches if CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is defined. __napi_gro_receive() and vlan_gro_common() can avoid a conditional branch to perform device match. On x86_64, __napi_gro_receive() has now 38 instructions instead of 53 As gcc-4.4.3 still choose to not inline it, add inline keyword to this performance critical function.

Applied.
