Subject: ixgbe: Remove code that was initializing Rx page offset
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=afaa9459de639591ff3318fd215a813c8d794759;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

ixgbe: Remove code that was initializing Rx page offset

This change reverts an earlier patch that introduced
ixgbe_init_rx_page_offset. The idea behind the function was to provide
some variation in the starting offset for the page in order to reduce
hot-spots in the cache. However it doesn't appear to provide any
significant benefit in the testing I have done. It has however been a
source of several bugs, and it blocks us from being able to use 2K
fragments on larger page sizes. So the decision I made was to remove it.
