[ Upstream commit b514c47ebf41a6536551ed28a05758036e6eca7c ] Commit5fabb01207("net: stmmac: Add initial XDP support") sets PP_FLAG_DMA_SYNC_DEV flag for page_pool unconditionally, page_pool_recycle_direct() will call page_pool_dma_sync_for_device() on every page even the page is not going to be reused by XDP program. When XDP is not enabled, the page which holds the received buffer will be recycled once the buffer is copied into new SKB by skb_copy_to_linear_data(), then the MAC core will never reuse this page any longer. Always setting PP_FLAG_DMA_SYNC_DEV wastes CPU cycles on unnecessary calling of page_pool_dma_sync_for_device(). After this patch, up to 9% noticeable performance improvement was observed on certain platforms.

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.
