This patch fixes several bugs found when (DMA/LLQ) mapping a packet for
transmission. The mapping procedure makes the transmitted packet
accessible by the device.
When using LLQ, this requires copying the packet's header to push header
(which would be passed to LLQ) and creating DMA mapping for the payload
(if the packet doesn't fit the maximum push length).
When not using LLQ, we map the whole packet with DMA.
The following bugs are fixed in the code:
1. Add support for non-LLQ machines:
The ena_xdp_tx_map_frame() function assumed that LLQ is
supported, and never mapped the whole packet using DMA. On some
instances, which don't support LLQ, this causes loss of traffic.
2. Wrong DMA buffer length passed to device:
When using LLQ, the first 'tx_max_header_size' bytes of the
packet would be copied to push header. The rest of the packet
would be copied to a DMA'd buffer.
3. Freeing the XDP buffer twice in case of a mapping error:
In case a buffer DMA mapping fails, the function uses
xdp_return_frame_rx_napi() to free the RX buffer and returns from
the function with an error. XDP frames that fail to xmit get
freed by the kernel and so there is no need for this call.

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.
