Commit c80794323e82 ("net: Fix packet reordering caused by GRO and
listified RX cooperation") had the unfortunate effect of adding
latencies in common workloads.
Before the patch, GRO packets were immediately passed to
upper stacks.
After the patch, we can accumulate quite a lot of GRO
packets (depdending on NAPI budget).
My fix is counting in napi->rx_count number of segments
instead of number of logical packets.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
