Optimize single segment case by processing it in different block which
prevents checks, calculations and barriers relevant only for multi
segment case.
Call a dedicated function for handling multi segments case.

Remove usage of variable which count the packets for completion and
doesn't add more information than packets counter.
Remove no space in elements ring check which is already covered by
regular Tx flow.

Associate memory region to mempool (on data path) in a short function.
Handle the less common case of adding a new memory region to mempool
in a separate function.

This commit defines MLX4_CQ_DB_CI_MASK which is used when updating
the consumer index of the completion queue instead of the hardcoded
0xffffff used until now.

This patch adds loopback functionality used when the chip is a VF in order
to enable packet transmission between VFs and PF.

This patch adds hardware offloading support for IPV4, UDP and TCP checksum
verification, including inner/outer checksums on supported tunnel types.
It also restores packet type recognition support.

This patch adds support for accessing the hardware directly when
handling Rx packets eliminating the need to use Verbs in the Rx data
path.
Rx scatter support: calculate the number of scatters on the fly
according to the maximum expected packet size.

Modify PMD to send single-buffer packets directly to the device
bypassing the Verbs Tx post and poll routines.
Tx gather support: add support for transmitting packets spanning
over multiple buffers.
Take into consideration the amount of entries a packet occupies
in the TxQ when setting the report-completion flag of the chip.

Work queues (WQs) are lower-level than standard queue pairs (QPs). They are
dedicated to one traffic direction and have to be used in conjunction with
indirection tables and special "hash" QPs to get the same level of
functionality.
These extra objects however are the building blocks for RSS support brought
by subsequent commits, as a single "hash" QP can manage several WQs through
an indirection table according to a hash algorithm and other parameters.

This commit groups all data plane functions (Rx/Tx) into a separate file
and adjusts header files accordingly.
Private functions are now prefixed with "mlx4_" to prevent them from
conflicting with their mlx5 PMD counterparts at link time.
No impact on functionality.
