  This patch adds GSO support for TCP/IPv4 packets. Supported packets
may include a single VLAN tag. TCP/IPv4 GSO doesn't check if input
packets have correct checksums, and doesn't update checksums for
output packets (the responsibility for this lies with the application).
Additionally, TCP/IPv4 GSO doesn't process IP fragmented packets.

TCP/IPv4 GSO uses two chained MBUFs, one direct MBUF and one indrect
MBUF, to organize an output packet. Note that we refer to these two
chained MBUFs as a two-segment MBUF. The direct MBUF stores the packet
header, while the indirect mbuf simply points to a location within the
original packet's payload. Consequently, use of the GSO library requires
multi-segment MBUF support in the TX functions of the NIC driver.

If a packet is GSOed, TCP/IPv4 GSO reduces its MBUF refcnt by 1. As a
result, when all of its GSOed segments are freed, the packet is freed
automatically.

TCP/IPv4 GSO clears the PKT_TX_TCP_SEG flag for the input packet and
GSO segments on the event of success.

This patch is test on my bench. Iperf result as following:
TSO : 18 Gbps
DPDK GSO: 10 Gbps
No TSO/GSO: 4 Gbps

      =========================================================
 
+* **Added the Generic Segmentation Offload Library.**
+
+  Added the Generic Segmentation Offload (GSO) library to enable
+  applications to split large packets (e.g. MSS is 64KB) into small
+  ones (e.g. MTU is 1500B). Supported packet types are:
+
+  * TCP/IPv4 packets, which may include a single VLAN tag.
+
+  The GSO library doesn't check if the input packets have correct
+  checksums, and doesn't update checksums for output packets.
+  Additionally, the GSO library doesn't process IP fragmented packets.
+
