This patch allows us to take care of unrolling the first segment and the last segment of the loop for processing the segmented skb. Part of the motivation for this is that it makes it easier to process the fact that the first fame and all of the frames in between should be mostly identical in terms of header data, and the last frame has differences in the length and partial checksum. In addition I am dropping the header length calculation since we don't really need it for anything but the last frame and it can be easily obtained by just pulling the data_len and offset of tail from the transport header.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
