net: sched: explicit locking in gso_cpu fallback
This work is preparing the qdisc layer to support egress lockless qdiscs. If we are running the egress qdisc lockless in the case we overrun the netdev, for whatever reason, the netdev returns a busy error code and the skb is parked on the gso_skb pointer. With many cores all hitting this case at once its possible to have multiple sk_buffs here so we turn gso_skb into a queue. This should be the edge case and if we see this frequently then the netdev/qdisc layer needs to back off. Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.fastabend@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
