[Xen-devel] [patch] linux-2.6 performance fix



This patch for linux-2.6 defconfig more than quadrupled iperf throughput,
restoring the gigethernet network performance to wire speed at long last.
Applies to xen-2.0-testing.bk xen-2.0.bk and xeno-unstable.bk

The throughput on linux-2.4.29 seems fine.  I hadn't tried it since 2.4.27.

The relevant sccs comment, from Dec1:
