This patch series is meant to allow us to get the best performance possible
for Mellanox ConnectX-3/4 adapters in terms of VXLAN tunnels.

The first few patches address issues I found when just trying to collect
performance numbers.  Specifically I was unable to get rates of any more
than 1 or 2 Mb/s if I was using a tunnel that ran over IPv6.  In addition I
found a few other items related to GSO_PARTIAL and the TSO_MANGLEID that
needed to be addressed.

The last 4 patches go through and enable GSO_PARTIAL for tunnels that have
an outer checksum enabled, and then enable IPv6 support where we can.  In
my tests I found that the mlx4 doesn't support outer IPv6 but the mlx5 did
so the code is updated to reflect that in the patches that enable IPv6
support.
