net/mlx4_en: Improve stack xmit function
Several small code and performance improvements in stack TX datapath, including: - Compiler branch predictor hints. - Minimize variables scope. - Move tx_info non-inline flow handling to a separate function. - Calculate data_offset in compile time rather than in runtime (for !lso_header_size branch). - Avoid trinary-operator ("?") when value can be preset in a matching branch. Performance tests: Tested on ConnectX3Pro, Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v3 @ 2.50GHz Gain is too small to be measurable, no degradation sensed. Results are similar for IPv4 and IPv6.
