virtio_net: add gro capability
Straightforward patch to add GRO processing to virtio_net. napi_complete_done() usage allows more aggressive aggregation, opted-in by setting /sys/class/net/xxx/gro_flush_timeout Tested: Setting /sys/class/net/xxx/gro_flush_timeout to 1000 nsec, Rick Jones reported following results. One VM of each on a pair of OpenStack compute nodes with E5-2650Lv3 CPUs and Intel 82599ES-based NICs. So, two "before" and two "after" VMs. The OpenStack compute nodes were running OpenStack Kilo, with VxLAN encapsulation being used through OVS so no GRO coming-up the host stack. The compute nodes themselves were running a 3.14-based kernel. Single-stream netperf, CPU utilizations and thus service demands are based on intra-guest reported CPU.
