[PATCH net 2/3] xen-netback: worse-case estimate in xenvif_rx_action is underestimating

From: Paul Durrant <hidden>
Date: 2014-03-27 12:23:23
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest, xen network backend driver · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, Wei Liu, Paul Durrant

The worse-case estimate for skb ring slot usage in xenvif_rx_action()
fails to take fragment page_offset into account. The page_offset does,
however, affect the number of times the fragmentation code calls
start_new_rx_buffer() (i.e. consume another slot) and the worse-case
should assume that will always return true. This patch adds the page_offset
into the DIV_ROUND_UP for each frag.
