dpaa2-eth: add support for software TSO



This patch adds support for driver level TSO in the enetc driver using
the TSO API.

There is not much to say about this specific implementation. We are
using the usual tso_build_hdr(), tso_build_data() to create each data
segment, we create an array of S/G FDs where the first S/G entry is
referencing the header data and the remaining ones the data portion.

For the S/G Table buffer we use the same cache of buffers used on the
other non-GSO cases - dpaa2_eth_sgt_get() and dpaa2_eth_sgt_recycle().

We cannot keep a DMA coherent buffer for all the TSO headers because the
DPAA2 architecture does not work in a ring based fashion so we just
allocate a buffer each time.

Even with these limitations we get the following improvement in TCP
termination on the LX2160A SoC, on a single A72 core running at 2.2GHz.

before: 6.38Gbit/s
after:  8.48Gbit/s
