Log: Now that we correctly enable rx interrupts on all cores, performance has gotten quite awful, because e.g. 4 packets will come in and get processed on 4 different cores at the same time, really battling with the TCP stack quite painfully. For now, just run one task at a time. This gets performance up in most cases to where it was before the correctness fixes that got interrupts to run on all cores (except in high-load TCP transmit cases where all we're handling receive for is ACKs) and in some cases it's better now. What would be ideal would be to use a more advanced interrupt mitigation strategy and possibly to use different workqueue groups per port for multi-port systems, and so on, but this is a fine stopgap.
