This patch adds support for generic Tx checksums to the ixgbevf driver. It
turns out this is actually pretty easy after going over the datasheet as we
were doing a number of steps we didn't need to.
In order to perform a Tx checksum for an L4 header we need to fill in the
following fields in the Tx descriptor:
MACLEN (maximum of 127), retrieved from:
skb_network_offset()
IPLEN (maximum of 511), retrieved from:
skb_checksum_start_offset() - skb_network_offset()
TUCMD.L4T indicates offset and if checksum or crc32c, based on:
skb->csum_offset
The added advantage to doing this is that we can support inner checksum
offloads for tunnels and MPLS while still being able to transparently
insert VLAN tags.
I also took the opportunity to clean-up many of the feature flag
configuration bits to make them a bit more consistent between drivers. In
the case of the VF drivers this meant adding support for SCTP CRCs, and
inner checksum offloads for MPLS and various tunnel types.
