This patch introduces the sysctl smcr_buf_type for setting the type of SMC-R sndbufs and RMBs. Valid values includes: - SMCR_PHYS_CONT_BUFS, which means use physically contiguous buffers for better performance and is the default value. - SMCR_VIRT_CONT_BUFS, which means use virtually contiguous buffers in case of physically contiguous memory is scarce. - SMCR_MIXED_BUFS, which means first try to use physically contiguous buffers. If not available, then use virtually contiguous buffers.
