If we can receive positive test feedback by January 8th, we can proceed to submit the patches for kernel SRU review in an attempt to make the upcoming kernel SRU cycle starting on January 10th. Assuming the patches are accepted for SRU and land in the upcoming SRU cycle, the fix should be available from the -updates pocket by January 30th.

This will help make the host more efficient since it can potentially process a larger batch of packets. Implement this optimization.
