This causes the Output Queue to be congested with low-utilized IO buffers. Fix this as follows: If the MSS is low enough so that a non-SG GSO segmentation produces order-0 skbs (currently ~3500 byte), opt out from NETIF_F_SG. This is where we anticipate the biggest savings, since an SG-enabled GSO segmentation produces skbs that always consume at least two buffer elements. Larger MSS values continue to get a SG-enabled GSO segmentation, since 1) the relative overhead of the additional header-only buffer element becomes less noticeable, and 2) the linearization overhead increases. With the throughput regression fixed, re-enable NETIF_F_SG by default to reap the significant CPU savings of GSO.
