[PATCH 2/2] cxgbi: get rid of gl_skb in cxgbi_ddp_info.

From: Karen Xie<[email protected]>

Remove gl_skb from cxgbi_ddp_info as it is only used by cxgb3i.

I think you want to try to avoid lots of little GFP_ATOMIC allocations in the main IO path, because it probably is bad for performance and because they can fail and you can be stuck with no mem but other allocations needing to write data out.

Did you want to just make each driver allocate a pool/map, then allocate from that pool/map in these places (cxgb4i does a similar skb allocation at these points right?)?
