This is because, until the SKB is freed by the driver, it holds onto socket, netfilter, and other subsystem resources." In summary, this means that using TX IRQ throttling for the networking gadgets is, at least, complex and we should avoid it for the time being.

usb: gadget: ether: Allow changing the MTU 2015-12-16T16:07:30+00:00 Mike Looijmans mike.looijmans@topic.nl 2015-11-30T11:18:23+00:00 ab738ff1991d183a67c37ce38b3fc39cd28798c6 The gadget ethernet driver supports changing the MTU, but only allows this when the USB cable is removed. The comment indicates that this is because the "peer won't know". Even if the network link is still down and only the USB link is established, the driver won't allow the change. Other network interfaces allow changing the MTU any time, and don't force the link to be disabled. This makes perfect sense, because in order to be able to negotiate the MTU, the link needs to be up. Remove the restriction so that it is now actually possible to change the MTU (e.g. using "ifconfig usb0 mtu 15000") without having to manually pull the plug or change the driver's default setting.
