I think this is a good idea.  It lets pktgen dynamically make the clone/share
decision dynamically and only impacts performance for those systems.

Just let pktgen refuse to use clone_skb command for these devices.

At that point, an userland application is going to be faster and more
flexible than pktgen.

So when I said "remove pktgen" from distro it was not a joke.
Maybe its time to admit pktgen has to be removed from kernel sources.

$ wc net/core/pktgen.c

Hmmm, 3788 lines, patched 180 times for a thing that only sends UDP
frames...
