My concern about this is :
This might slow down GRO stack for other traffic, if dev_add_offload()
for vlan offloads is called after
dev_add_offload(&ip_packet_offload) /
dev_add_offload(&ipv6_packet_offload)
This is because list_add_rcu is used and this inserts in front of the
offload_base list.
void dev_add_offload(struct packet_offload *po)
{
struct list_head *head = &offload_base;
spin_lock(&offload_lock);
list_add_rcu(&po->list, head);
spin_unlock(&offload_lock);
}
Can we ensure offload_base contains a sensible order of expected types ?
