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.
