Yuval Mintz 9969085e7e bnx2x: Added FW GRO bridging support
Since submit 621b4d6 the bnx2x driver support FW GRO.
However, when using the device with GRO enabled in bridging
scenarios throughput is very low, as the bridge expects all
incoming packets to be passed with CHECKSUM_PARTIAL -
a demand which is satisfied by the SW GRO implementation,
but was missed in the bnx2x driver implementation (which returned
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY).

Now, given that the traffic is supported by FW GRO (TCP/IP),
the bnx2x driver calculates the pseudo checksum by itself,
passing skbs with CHECKSUM_PARTIAL and giving a much better
throughput when receiving GRO traffic.
