Transport header size could be 60 bytes, and network header
size can also be 60 bytes. Add the Ethernet header and we
are above 128 bytes.
Since drivers using net/core/tso.c usually allocates
one DMA coherent piece of memory per TX queue, this patch
might cause issues if a driver was using too many slots.
For 1024 slots, we would need 256 KB of physically
contiguous memory instead of 128 KB.
Alternative fix would be to add checks in the fast path,
but this involves more work in all drivers using net/core/tso.c.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
