Eric Dumazet 51b8f812e5 ipv6: exthdrs: get rid of indirect calls in ip6_parse_tlv()
As presented last month in our "BIG TCP" talk at netdev 0x15,
we plan using IPv6 jumbograms.

One of the minor problem we talked about is the fact that
ip6_parse_tlv() is currently using tables to list known tlvs,
thus using potentially expensive indirect calls.

While we could mitigate this cost using macros from
indirect_call_wrapper.h, we also can get rid of the tables
and let the compiler emit optimized code.

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.
