sfc: Firmware-Assisted TSO version 2
Add support for FATSOv2 to the driver. FATSOv2 offloads far more of the task of TCP segmentation to the firmware, such that we now just pass a single super-packet to the NIC. This means TSO has a great deal in common with a normal DMA transmit, apart from adding a couple of option descriptors. NIC-specific checks have been moved off the fast path and in to initialisation where possible. This also moves FATSOv1/SWTSO to a new file (tx_tso.c). The end of transmit and some error handling is now outside TSO, since it is common with other code. Signed-off-by: Edward Cree <ecree@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
