If the USB host controller is EHCI, the throughput is reduced from 300Mb/s to 60Mb/s, when the rx buffer size is modified from 16K to 32K. According to the EHCI spec, the maximum size of the qTD is 20K. Therefore, when the driver uses more than 20K buffer, the latency time of EHCI would be increased. And, it let the RTL8153A get worse throughput. However, the driver uses alloc_pages() for rx buffer, so I limit the rx buffer to 16K rather than 20K.

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.
