Currently the so-called GRO fast path is only enabled for napi_frags_skb() callers. After the prior patch, we no longer have to clear frag0 whenever we pulled bytes to skb->head. We therefore can initialize frag0 to skb->data so that GRO fast path can be used in the following additional cases: - Drivers using header split (populating skb->data with headers, and having payload in one or more page fragments). - Drivers not using any page frag (entire packet is in skb->data) Add a likely() in skb_gro_may_pull() to help the compiler to generate better code if possible.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
