So are you saying that there is something in the system preventing up to MAX_SKB_FRAGS * SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER (or NETDEV_FRAG_PAGE_MAX_ORDER) skb-s to be created? I didn't find any. I do notice that __netdev_alloc_frag() currently never gets called with a size larger than PAGE_SIZE, but considering that the function just recently got made capable of that, I'm sure respective users will show up rather sooner than later.
