Thanks for mentioning that, It seems that is exactly what the
pfifo_fast qdisc need for locklees multi-producer, because it
only need the memory to store the skb pointer.

Does it have any limitation? More specifically, does it works with
the process or softirq context, if not, how about context with
rcu protection?
