That is the only part of this patch I'm willing to entertain
at this time, as long as Herbert Xu ACKs it. How much of that
quoted %3 gain does this change alone give you?

Also, please post networking patches to netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Because you didn't, the majority of the networking maintainers
did not see your dst patch submissions. It's mentioned in
linux/MAINTAINERS for a reason:

NETWORKING [GENERAL]
P: Networking Team
M: netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
L: netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
S: Maintained

Thanks.
