I've documented ALL the details here:
 
https://github.com/xdp-project/xdp-project/blob/master/areas/cpumap/cpumap02-optimizations.org

I seem to have found that the SKB-list approach is not a performance
advantage, which is very surprising.  BUT it might still be due to
invalid benchmarking, as I found that F27 behind my back is auto-loading
iptables-filter modules, which change performance.  Thus, I have to
redo a lot of the tests...

I'm considering removing the SKB-list patch from the patchset, as all
other patches show a performance increase/improvement.  Then we can
merge that, and then I can focus on SKB-list approach in another
patchset.  BUT as I said above, I might have wrong/invalid
measurements... I have to retest before I concluded anything...
