Herbert Xu da3bc07171 sfc: Replace LRO with GRO
This patch makes sfc invoke the GRO hooks instead of LRO.  As
GRO has a compatible external interface to LRO this is a very
straightforward replacement.

Everything should appear identical to the user except that the
offload is now controlled by the GRO ethtool option instead of
LRO.  I've kept the lro module parameter as is since that's for
compatibility only.

I have eliminated efx_rx_mk_skb as the GRO layer can take care
of all packets regardless of whether GRO is enabled or not.

So the only case where we don't call GRO is if the packet checksum
is absent.  This is to keep the behaviour changes of the patch to
a minimum.

Ben Hutchings bc3c90a2b7 sfc: Remove some unreachable error paths
Some functions return an error code which is always 0.  Change their
return types to void and simplify their callers accordingly.

Ben Hutchings dc8cfa55da sfc: Use explicit bool for boolean variables, parameters and return values
Replace (cond ? 1 : 0) with cond or !!cond as appropriate, and
(cond ? 0 : 1) with !cond.

Remove some redundant boolean temporaries.

Rename one field that looks like a flag but isn't.
