[PATCH net-next 0/3] Drop get_headlen functions in favor of generic funciton

From: Alexander Duyck <hidden>
Date: 2014-09-05 18:18:18

This series replaces the igb_get_headlen and ixgbe_get_headlen functions
with a generic function named eth_get_headlen.

I have done some performance testing on ixgbe with 258 byte frames since
the calls are only used on frames larger than 256 bytes and have seen no
significant difference in CPU utilization.

Alexander Duyck (3):
      net: Add function for parsing the header length out of linear ethernet frames
      igb: use new eth_get_headlen interface
      ixgbe: use new eth_get_headlen interface
