Hi Qi,

This patch is not acked by the i40e maintainers.

And this is changing the datapath for the -rc3, two weeks before
the release. Is it tested enough?

What is the gain with this patch, I don't see any numbers
in the commit log.
If the gain is small, can we postpone this patch to next
release instead of getting it for -rc3?
