Commit 14d898f3c1b3 ("dev: Move received_rps counter next
to RPS members in softnet data") was unfortunate:
received_rps is dirtied by a cpu and never read by other
cpus in fast path.
Its presence in the hot RPS cache line (shared by many cpus)
is hurting RPS/RFS performance.

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 reStructuredText 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.
