Part of this information was in your 0/4 text, but it wont be included

Yes it will, in the merge commit I make when I merge this stuff in.

Reduce the number of calls required to alloc

I believe these error messages are already logged
on allocation failure by warn_alloc_failed and so
get a dump_stack on OOM.
Remove the unnecessary additional error logging.
Around these deletions:

In general it appears to require a run-time check. You might need to
augment asm/timex.h.
On the other hand, unlike get_cycles, sched_clock() is always available.

At the moment, macvtap crashes are observed if macvtap is attached

If the consensus is still that we must preserve packets exactly (aside
from the usual modifications by IP routers) then LRO should be disabled
on all devices for which forwarding is enabled.
