The perf traces for ipv6 routing code show a relevant cost around trace_fib6_table_lookup(), even if no trace is enabled. This is due to the fib6_table de-referencing currently performed by the caller. Let's the tracing code pay this overhead, passing to the trace helper the table pointer. This gives small but measurable performance improvement under UDP flood.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
