 needs into the header area.]

- * rx_alloc_method - RX buffer allocation method
- *
- * This driver supports two methods for allocating and using RX buffers:
- * each RX buffer may be backed by an skb or by an order-n page.
- *
- * When GRO is in use then the second method has a lower overhead,
- * since we don't have to allocate then free skbs on reassembled frames.
- *
- * Values:
- *   - RX_ALLOC_METHOD_AUTO = 0
- *   - RX_ALLOC_METHOD_SKB  = 1
- *   - RX_ALLOC_METHOD_PAGE = 2
- *
- * The heuristic for %RX_ALLOC_METHOD_AUTO is a simple hysteresis count
- * controlled by the parameters below.
- *
- *   - Since pushing and popping descriptors are separated by the rx_queue
- *     size, so the watermarks should be ~rxd_size.
- *   - The performance win by using page-based allocation for GRO is less
- *     than the performance hit of using page-based allocation of non-GRO,
- *     so the watermarks should reflect this.
- *
- * Per channel we maintain a single variable, updated by each channel:
- *
- *   rx_alloc_level += (gro_performed ? RX_ALLOC_FACTOR_GRO :
- *                      RX_ALLOC_FACTOR_SKB)
- * Per NAPI poll interval, we constrain rx_alloc_level to 0..MAX (which
- * limits the hysteresis), and update the allocation strategy:
- *
- *   rx_alloc_method = (rx_alloc_level > RX_ALLOC_LEVEL_GRO ?
- *                      RX_ALLOC_METHOD_PAGE : RX_ALLOC_METHOD_SKB)
