napi_build_skb() reuses per-cpu NAPI skbuff_head cache in order to save some cycles on freeing/allocating skbuff_heads on every new Rx or completed Tx element. e1000 driver runs Tx completion polling cycle right before the Rx one. Now that e1000 uses napi_consume_skb() to put skbuff_heads of completed entries into the cache, it will never empty and always warm at that moment. Switch to the napi_build_skb() to relax mm pressure on heavy Rx and increase throughput.
