I tested this with Volanomark on dual-processor PII Xeon -- the
results were very bad:

Before: 5863 messages per second

124169 schedule 64.1369
64663 _spin_unlock_irqrestore 4041.4375
7949 tcp_clean_rtx_queue 6.5370
6787 net_rx_action 24.9522

After: 5569 messages per second

139417 schedule 72.0129
82169 _spin_unlock_irqrestore 5135.5625
9949 tcp_clean_rtx_queue 8.1817
7917 net_rx_action 29.1066
