Michael S. Tsirkin 1daa8790d0 virtio_net: fix truesize for mergeable buffers 
Seth Forshee noticed a performance degradation with some workloads.
This turns out to be due to packet drops.  Euan Kemp noticed that this
is because we drop all packets where length exceeds the truesize, but
for some packets we add in extra memory without updating the truesize.
This in turn was kept around unchanged from ab7db91705 ("virtio-net:
auto-tune mergeable rx buffer size for improved performance").  That
commit had an internal reason not to account for the extra space: not
enough bits to do it.  No longer true so let's account for the allocated
length exactly.

Many thanks to Seth Forshee for the report and bisecting and Euan Kemp
for debugging the issue.

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
