Commit Message

Richard Gobert Feb. 22, 2023, 3:07 p.m. UTC
The GRO control block (NAPI_GRO_CB) is currently at its maximum size.  This
commit reduces its size by putting two groups of fields that are used only at
different times into a union.

Specifically, the fields frag0 and frag0_len are the fields that make up the
frag0 optimisation mechanism, which is used during the initial parsing of the
SKB.

The fields last and age are used after the initial parsing, while the SKB is
stored in the GRO list, waiting for other packets to arrive.

There was one location in dev_gro_receive that modified the frag0 fields after
setting last and age. I changed this accordingly without altering the code
behaviour.
