I don't know what PCDN is, but what we care about in Linux is whether
the change under Fixes introduced a regression. Optimizations, and 
improvements no matter how trivial in terms of code are not fixes.
So did ba37b7caf1ed ("net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: add support for
initializing the PPE") make things worse. And if you're saying there
are 50k "links" in real world why is 16k a major win? it's 1/3rd of
the total.
