Ido Schimmel 907dd32b4a mlxsw: Enable Tx checksum offload
The device is able to checksum plain TCP / UDP packets over IPv4 / IPv6
when the 'ipcs' bit in the send descriptor is set. Advertise support for
the 'NETIF_F_IP{,6}_CSUM' features in net devices registered by the
driver and VLAN uppers and set the 'ipcs' bit when the stack requests Tx
checksum offload.

Note that the device also calculates the IPv4 checksum, but it first
zeroes the current checksum so there should not be any difference
compared to the checksum calculated by the kernel.

On SN5600 (Spectrum-4) there is about 10% improvement in Tx packet rate
with 1400 byte packets when using pktgen.

Tested on Spectrum-{1,2,3,4} with all the combinations of IPv4 / IPv6,
TCP / UDP, with and without VLAN.

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 reStructuredText 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.
