mlx4 driver has a suboptimal memory allocation strategy for regular MTU=1500 frames, as it uses two page fragments : One of 512 bytes and one of 1024 bytes. This makes GRO less effective, as each GSO packet contains 8 MSS instead of 16 MSS. Performance of a single TCP flow gains 25 % increase with the following patch.
