Mon Apr 25 21:35:20 UTC 2016
STT implementation we saw performance improvements with linearizing
skb for SLUB case. So following patch skips zero copy operation
for such a case.
Performance number for large packet TCP test using netperf.

v1-v2:
- while reassembly, try to merge skb before copying the skbs.
- define separate coalesce_skb() to copy skb for SLUB case.
