net: pktgen: packet bursting via skb->xmit_more
This patch demonstrates the effect of delaying update of HW tailptr.
(based on earlier patch by Jesper)
burst=1 is the default. It sends one packet with xmit_more=false
burst=2 sends one packet with xmit_more=true and
2nd copy of the same packet with xmit_more=false
burst=3 sends two copies of the same packet with xmit_more=true and
3rd copy with xmit_more=false
Performance with ixgbe (usec 30):
burst=1 tx:9.2 Mpps
burst=2 tx:13.5 Mpps
burst=3 tx:14.5 Mpps full 10G line rate
