A specific flag is RTE_ETH_TX_OFFLOAD_SECURITY, and because this is not 
contained in IAVF_TX_OFFLOAD_MASK the previous fix broke the inline 
crypto feature.

The previous fix was supposed to prevent reading l2_len and l3_len if no 
Tx offloads has been requested - but there are offloads that can be 
requested that are not in the IAVF_TX_CKSUM_OFFLOAD_MASK set.
