[PATCH 19/29] netvm: skb processing

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Wed Feb 21 2007 - 10:08:57 EST


In order to make sure emergency packets receive all memory needed to proceed
ensure processing of emergency skbs happens under PF_MEMALLOC.

Use the (new) sk_backlog_rcv() wrapper to ensure this for backlog processing.

Skip taps, since those are user-space again.
