There is a temptation to send full NTBs even with a single IP packet,
But it will lead to wasted USB bandwidth and reduced ability to send
real data for other functions in

Until we do something with network device framework in order to get
access to upper layer Tx queue we need to utilize timer.
Could you explain your reasoning? From what you

Unless you expect 10Gbit speed from this driver, skb_clone() is the
