net: hns3: use tx bounce buffer for small packets
when the packet or frag size is small, it causes both security and performance issue. As dma can't map sub-page, this means some extra kernel data is visible to devices. On the other hand, the overhead of dma map and unmap is huge when IOMMU is on. So add a queue based tx shared bounce buffer to memcpy the small packet when the len of the xmitted skb is below tx_copybreak. Add tx_spare_buf_size module param to set the size of tx spare buffer, and add set/get_tunable to set or query the tx_copybreak. The throughtput improves from 30 Gbps to 90+ Gbps when running 16 netperf threads with 32KB UDP message size when IOMMU is in the strict mode(tx_copybreak = 2000 and mtu = 1500).
