net: hns3: use tx bounce buffer for small packets

mainline inclusion
from mainline-master
commit 907676b1
category: feature
bugzilla: 173966
CVE: NA

Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=907676b130711fd1f627824559e92259db2061d1



----------------------------------------------------------------------

when the packet or frag size is small, it causes both security and
performance issue. As dma can't map sub-page, this means some extra
kernel data is visible to devices. On the other hand, the overhead
of dma map and unmap is huge when IOMMU is on.

So add a queue based tx shared bounce buffer to memcpy the small
packet when the len of the xmitted skb is below tx_copybreak.
Add tx_spare_buf_size module param to set the size of tx spare
buffer, and add set/get_tunable to set or query the tx_copybreak.

The throughtput improves from 30 Gbps to 90+ Gbps when running 16
netperf threads with 32KB UDP message size when IOMMU is in the
strict mode(tx_copybreak = 2000 and mtu = 1500).
