Again, the __packed attribute should not be necessary and needs to be
removed.

You do not need to copy here, instead you can build SKB's where the
skb->data points directly at the head of your first frag page memory.

See build_skb().

Here you would use build_skb() instead of netdev_alloc_skb*() for the first
frag, and keep the existing code tacking on subsequent frags using
skb_add_Rx_frag().

There could be races here.

At the exact moment you call register_netdev(), your device can be
brought UP, packets transmitted, etc. You entire set of driver code
paths can be executed.

The rest of those initializations after register_netdev() probably
are needed by the rest of the driver to function properly, so may
need to happen before register_netdev() publishes the device to the
entire world.
