Is the network interface set up to use jumbo frames? Otherwise I
wouldn't expect alloc_skb() to allocate a data area that straddles a
page boundary, since the allocation will come from one of the
sub-page-sized power-of-two kmem caches.
                                                                               
                                                                               
            
If the problem is jumbo frames, we might need to add a hook to
alloc_skb(). Using swiotlb will suck hugely.
