Merge branch 'sch_fq-improvements'
Eric Dumazet says:
====================
net_sched: sch_fq: round of improvements
For FQ tenth anniversary, it was time for making it faster.
The FQ part (as in Fair Queue) is rather expensive, because
we have to classify packets and store them in a per-flow structure,
and add this per-flow structure in a hash table. Then the RR lists
also add cache line misses.
Most fq qdisc are almost idle. Trying to share NIC bandwidth has
no benefits, thus the qdisc could behave like a FIFO.
This series brings a 5 % throughput increase in intensive
tcp_rr workload, and 13 % increase for (unpaced) UDP packets.
v2: removed an extra label (build bot).
Fix an accidental increase of stat_internal_packets counter
in fast path.
Added "constify qdisc_priv()" patch to allow fq_fastpath_check()
first parameter to be const.
typo on 'eligible' (Willem)
