Just next useless patch [Linus should really put me in his .procmailrc]...
It removes unnecessary 90kb from kernel sources.
I moved common code from:
- include/asm-mips/linux_logo.h and include/asm-mips64/linux_logo.h
to include/linux/linux_logo_mips.h

The FF experiments with 2.1.X indicated improvement factor about 2-3 times
with skb recycling. With combination of FF and skb recycling we could reach
fast Ethernet wire speed forwarding on 400 Mhz CPU. About ~147 KPPS.
As jamal reported the improvement is much less today but the
