Re: [PATCH v3 net-next 08/14] mlx4: use order-0 pages for RX

Anything _relying_ on order-3 pages being available to impress
friends/customers is a lie.
BTW, you do understand that on PowerPC right now, an Ethernet frame
holds 65536*8 =  half a MByte , right ?

So any PowerPC host using mlx4 NIC can easily be bringed down, by
using a few TCP flows and sending out of order packets.

That is in itself quite scary.
