Subject: IP LRO

Hi,
We have recently implemented a reassembly of fragmented IP packets in
mlx4_en driver. This offload gives a performance boost in case of incoming
traffic with fragmented packets (such as UDP traffic with message size larger
then MTU). The attached patch contains this offload. I believe that we can make
this code generic, maybe part of inet_lro.
Please review and comment.

Thanks,
Yevgeny
