net: Use skbufhead with raw lock
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Use the rps lock as rawlock so we can keep irq-off regions. It looks low
latency. However we can't kfree() from this context therefore we defer this
to the softirq and use the tofree_queue list for it (similar to process_queue).
