netpoll: Add support for hardware checksumming on egress
Netpoll used to compute its own csum; but if the device supports, we should let it do the checksum itself. Note: we owe the upstream community some documentation about why and how we configure FMan for checksumming on egress. It is apparently not clear to them and so a reason for not having this patch upstream yet.
