As per Eric Dumazet's previous patches:
(see commit (24d2e4a507) - tg3: use napi_complete_done())
Quoting verbatim:
Using napi_complete_done() instead of napi_complete() allows
us to use /sys/class/net/ethX/gro_flush_timeout
GRO layer can aggregate more packets if the flush is delayed a bit,
without having to set too big coalescing parameters that impact
latencies.

i40e:
Hard to test because the traffic is incoming so fast (24Gb/s) that GRO
always receives 87kB, even at the highest interrupt rate.
Other drivers were only compile tested.
