virtio-net: coalesce rx frags when possible during rx
Commit 2613af0ed18a11d5c566a81f9a6510b73180660a (virtio_net: migrate mergeable rx buffers to page frag allocators) try to increase the payload/truesize for MTU-sized traffic. But this will introduce the extra overhead for GSO packets received because of the frag list. This commit tries to reduce this issue by coalesce the possible rx frags when possible during rx. Test result shows the about 15% improvement on full size GSO packet receiving (and even better than before commit 2613af0ed18a11d5c566a81f9a6510b73180660a).
