Add support in dpaa2-eth for packet processing on the Tx path using AF_XDP zero copy mode. The newly added dpaa2_xsk_tx() function will handle enqueuing AF_XDP Tx packets into the appropriate queue and update any necessary statistics. On a more detailed note, the dpaa2_xsk_tx_build_fd() function handles creating a Scatter-Gather frame descriptor with only one data buffer. This is needed because otherwise we would need to impose a headroom in the Tx buffer to store our software annotation structures. This tactic is already used on the normal data path of the dpaa2-eth driver, thus we are reusing the dpaa2_eth_sgt_get/dpaa2_eth_sgt_recycle functions in order to allocate and recycle the Scatter-Gather table buffers. In case we have reached the maximum number of Tx XSK packets to be sent in a NAPI cycle, we'll exit the dpaa2_eth_poll() and hope to be rescheduled again. On the XSK Tx confirmation path, we are just unmapping the SGT buffer and recycle it for further use.

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.
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.
