    Add software TSO support for FEC.
    This feature allows to improve outbound throughput performance.
    
    Tested on imx6dl sabresd board, running iperf tcp tests shows:
    - 16.2% improvement comparing with FEC SG patch
    - 82% improvement comparing with NO SG & TSO patch
    
    $ ethtool -K eth0 tso on
    $ iperf -c 10.192.242.167 -t 3 &
    [  3] local 10.192.242.108 port 35388 connected with 10.192.242.167 port 5001
    [ ID] Interval       Transfer     Bandwidth
    [  3]  0.0- 3.0 sec   181 MBytes   506 Mbits/sec
    
    During the testing, CPU loading is 30%.
    Since imx6dl FEC Bandwidth is limited to SOC system bus bandwidth, the
    performance with SW TSO is a milestone.
