That is an interesting idea.  I wonder if there would be a similar
benefit for small packets.  If nothing else I might try a few
experiments with ixgbe to see if I can take advantage of something similar.

I was planning to submit a core infrastructure when net-next reopens, a
simple layer to use instead of alloc_page(), and immediately usable in
Intel drivers.

Sound good.  I look forward to it.
