Number of free Tx descriptors does not need to be locked since
it can be modified atomically between SND and CQ tasks.
It will also block Tx routine from sending packets while CQ will not
be able to free descriptors.

Due to the bug in the number of 'GATHER' subdescriptors for TSO
packets, VNIC was not able to transmit more than one DMA segment
with TSO enabled.

- Avoid memory leak when nicvf_tx_mbuf_locked() fails
- Introduce nicvf_xmit_locked() routine that uses drbr_peek(),
drbr_advance() or drbr_putback() for a specific ifnet.
This gives more clear and efficient design as well as
prevents from dropping mbufs that where not sent due to temporary
lack of descriptors.
- Add missing ETHER_BPF_MTAP() hook

- Do not mark CSUM_IP_CHECKED and CSUM_IP_VALID on IPv6 packets.
IPv6 does not have checksums by definition.
- Set SCTP packets csum_flags CSUM_SCTP_VALID instead of
CSUM_DATA_VALID and skip csum_data
- Set csum_data simply as 0xffff without byteswap

TSO packets will signal segments TX completion in the separate CQ
descriptors. Each CQ descriptor for HW TSO will point to the same
SQ entry.
Do not invoke nicvf_put_sq_desc() for secondary segments to avoid
free_cnt corruption and eventually integer overflow that will result
in the negative free_cnt value and hence impossibility of further
transmission.

It doesn't seem to be necessary to recreate CQ head after
interrupt clearing too.

- The network controller verifies Rx TCP/UDP/SCTP checksums by default.
Communicate this to the stack when the packet is not marked as erroneous
to avoid redundant checksum calculation in kernel.
- It is not uncommon to get the mbuf with m_len that is less than
the minimal size for the IP, TCP, UDP, etc. when HW checsumming
is enabled. To avoid data corruption performed by the HW that is
intended to write IP and TCP/UDP/SCTP checksums to the data segment,
the mbuf needs to be pulled up by the required number of bytes.
- Make sure that one can modify the mbufs that require checsum calculation
rather than check for NULL mbuf on each transmission.
