I/OAT: set tcp_dma_copybreak to 256k for I/OAT ver.3
Upcoming server platforms from Intel based on the Nehalem performance have significantly improved CPU based copy performance. However, the DMA engine can still be effective at higher I/O sizes for TCP traffic and at this time copybreak should be set to 256k for TCP traffic only.
