+Subject: [PATCH 4/7] bcm63xx_enet: alloc rx skb with NET_IP_ALIGN
+
+Use netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align on newer SoCs with integrated switch
+(enetsw) when refilling RX. Increases packet processing performance
+by 30% (with netif_receive_skb_list).
+
+Non-enetsw SoCs cannot function with the extra pad so continue to use
+the regular netdev_alloc_skb.
+
+Tested on BCM6328 320 MHz and iperf3 -M 512 to measure packet/sec
+performance.
+
+Before:
+[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth Retr
+[ 4] 0.00-30.00 sec 120 MBytes 33.7 Mbits/sec 277 sender
+[ 4] 0.00-30.00 sec 120 MBytes 33.5 Mbits/sec receiver
+
+After (+netif_receive_skb_list):
+[ 4] 0.00-30.00 sec 155 MBytes 43.3 Mbits/sec 354 sender
+[ 4] 0.00-30.00 sec 154 MBytes 43.1 Mbits/sec receiver
