ath11k_nss: Introduce skbuff_recycle for performance
QSDK NSS builds utilize skbuff recycling for better handling of memory. On a Dynalink DL-WRX36 (pbuf script should be set to 'auto') a significant drop in memory usage was observed as well consistent sustained RX/TX speeds. BEFORE: echo 3 >! /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches free -m total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 867 338 547 90 101 528 Swap: 0 0 0 AFTER: total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 867 242 594 1 81 624 Swap: 0 0 0 NOTE: For 512MB platforms, users need to test with the following scenarios, as the patch `999-233-ath11k-Disable-rx_header-tlv-for-2K-SKB.patch` is really only testable on platforms with 512M or less RAM. 1.) Explicitly setting 'ATH11K_MEM_PROFILE_512M' on and see if system crashes on boot. 2.) Explicitly setting 'ATH11K_MEM_PROFILE_1G' 3.) Remove patches 999-233-ath11k-Disable-rx_header-tlv-for-2K-SKB.patch 999-311-ath11k-configure-nss-thread-priority-during-pdev_ini.patch And re-test with #1 and #2 It was incorrectly assumed that setting a 512M for 1G platforms would save memory, instead it needs to be explicitly set to know proper memory regions, otherwise it would cause fw crash.
