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.
No performance regression nor improvement is observed.

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.

- For non-TSO offloading, we don't need to access mbuf to know
which csum offloading is requested, we can just use the
CSUM_{IP,TCP,UDP} in the csum_flags.
- For TSO offloading, we still can depend on CSUM_{TSO4,TSO6}
in the csum_flags to tell whether the TSO packet is an IPv4
TSO packet or an IPv6 TSO packet.
This streamlines csum offloading handling (remove the two goto)
and allows us the nuke the unnecessary get_transport_proto_type().

- Record csum features in softc, so we don't need to duplicate the
logic from attach path to ioctl path.
- Protect if_capenable and if_hwassist changes by main lock.
- Prefer turn on/off bits in if_hwassist explicitly instead of using
XOR.

- Avoid main lock contention by trylock for if_start, if that fails,
schedule TX taskqueue for if_start
- Don't do direct sending if the packet to be sent is large, e.g.
TSO packet.
This change gives me stable 9.1Gbps TCP sending performance w/ TSO
over a 10Gbe directly connected network (the performance fluctuated
between 4Gbps and 9Gbps before this commit). It also improves non-
TSO TCP sending performance a lot.

- Properly setup TSO parameters.
- Properly handle bpf(4) tapping. This 5 times the performance

Default value still needs more test to determine.

This one mainly avoids mbuf cluster allocation for TCP ACKs during

- Implement the LRO using tcp_lro APIs, and LRO is enabled by default.
- Add several stats sysctl nodes.
- Check IP/TCP length before sending the packet to tcp_lro_rx(), if host
does not provide RX csum information (*); and add an option through
sysctl to always trust host TCP segment csum checks (default is off).
- Add sysctl to control the LRO entry depth; it is disabled by default.
It is used to avoid holding too much TCP segments in driver. Limiting
the LRO entry depth helps a lot in a one/two streams RX test.
This one 3x the RX performance on my local test (3Gbps -> 10Gbps), and
~2x the RX performance over a directly connected 40Ge network (5Gbps ->
9Gbps).
(*) It seems the host stops supplying csum information, once the network
load is high. This still needs investigation...
