Daniele Palmas 64b5d1f8f2 net: qualcomm: rmnet: add tx packets aggregation
Add tx packets aggregation.

Bidirectional TCP throughput tests through iperf with low-cat
Thread-x based modems revelead performance issues both in tx
and rx.

The Windows driver does not show this issue: inspecting USB
packets revealed that the only notable change is the driver
enabling tx packets aggregation.

Tx packets aggregation is by default disabled and can be enabled
by increasing the value of ETHTOOL_A_COALESCE_TX_MAX_AGGR_FRAMES.

The maximum aggregated size is by default set to a reasonably low
value in order to support the majority of modems.

This implementation is based on patches available in Code Aurora
repositories (msm kernel) whose main authors are

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
