This mainly used to improve ACK timeliness when multiple RX rings
are enabled.
This value gives the best performance in both Azure and Hyper-V
environment, w/ both 10Ge and 40Ge using non-{INVARIANTS,WITNESS}

Each channel contains one RX ring and one TX ring. And we
try to distribute the channels to different evenly.
Note: Currently we don't have enough information to extract
the RSS type and RSS hash value from the received packets.
This greatly improves the TX/RX performance for 8 virtual CPU
Hyper-V over 10Ge: it can max out 10Ge for TCP when multiple
RX/TX rings are enabled.
This almost doubles the TX/RX performance for locally connected
Hyper-Vs: was 6Gbps w/ 128 TCP streams, now 11Gbps w/ multiple
RX/TX rings enabled.
It is not enabled by default; it will be switched on after more
tests.

So one spinlock is avoided, which would be potentially dangerous for
virtual machine, if the spinlock holder was scheduled out by the host,
as noted by royger.
Old spinlock based txdesc list is still kept around, so we could have
a safe fallback.

Set TCP ACK append limit to 1, i.e. aggregate 2 ACKs at most. Aggregating
anything more than 2 hurts TCP sending performance in hyperv. This
significantly improves the TCP sending performance when the number of
concurrent connetion is low (2~8). And it greatly stabilizes the TCP
sending performance in other cases.
Set TCP data segments aggregation length limit to 37500. Without this
limitation, hn(4) could aggregate ~45 TCP data segments for each
connection (even at 64 or more connections) before dispatching them to
socket code; large aggregation slows down ACK sending and eventually
hurts/destabilizes TCP reception performance. This setting stabilizes
and improves TCP reception performance for >4 concurrent connections
significantly.
Make them sysctls so they could be adjusted.
