As noted by someone; that should be 2*10*2, for a total of 40 cpus in
this machine.

OK, so it appears this is link order nonsense. When I compared profiles
between the series, the one function that had significant change was
skb_release_data(), which doesn't make much sense.

If I do a 'make clean' in front of each build, I get a repeatable
improvement with this patch set (although how much of that is due to the
patches itself or just because of code movement is as yet undetermined).

I'm of a mind to apply these patches; with two patches on top, which
I'll post shortly.
