[PATCH for-7.2 v2] rtl8139: honor large send MSS value

[PATCH for-7.2 v2] rtl8139: honor large send MSS value

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

The Large-Send Task Offload Tx Descriptor (9.2.1 Transmit) has a
Large-Send MSS value where the driver specifies the MSS. See the
datasheet here:
http://realtek.info/pdf/rtl8139cp.pdf

The code ignores this value and uses a hardcoded MSS of 1500 bytes
instead. When the MTU is less than 1500 bytes the hardcoded value
results in IP fragmentation and poor performance.

Use the Large-Send MSS value to correctly size Large-Send packets.

Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> noticed that the Large-Send MSS value
mask was incorrect so it is adjusted to match the datasheet and Linux
8139cp driver.

This issue was discussed in the past here:
