cxgb4/chcr: avoid -Wreturn-local-addr warning



gcc-10 warns about functions that return a pointer to a stack
variable. In chcr_write_cpl_set_tcb_ulp(), this does not actually
happen, but it's too hard to see for the compiler:

drivers/crypto/chelsio/chcr_ktls.c: In function 'chcr_write_cpl_set_tcb_ulp.constprop':
drivers/crypto/chelsio/chcr_ktls.c:760:9: error: function may return address of local variable [-Werror=return-local-addr]
  760 |  return pos;
      |         ^~~
drivers/crypto/chelsio/chcr_ktls.c:712:5: note: declared here
  712 |  u8 buf[48] = {0};
      |     ^~~

Split the middle part of the function out into a helper to make
it easier to understand by both humans and compilers, which avoids
the warning.
