Richard Gobert 7b355b76e2 gro: decrease size of CB
The GRO control block (NAPI_GRO_CB) is currently at its maximum size.
This commit reduces its size by putting two groups of fields that are
used only at different times into a union.

Specifically, the fields frag0 and frag0_len are the fields that make up
the frag0 optimisation mechanism, which is used during the initial
parsing of the SKB.

The fields last and age are used after the initial parsing, while the
SKB is stored in the GRO list, waiting for other packets to arrive.

There was one location in dev_gro_receive that modified the frag0 fields
after setting last and age. I changed this accordingly without altering
the code behaviour.

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.
