We should keep one way to build skbs, regardless of GRO being on or off.
Note that I made sure to defer as much as possible the point we need to
pull data from the frame, so that future prefetch() we might add
are more effective.
These skb attributes derive from the CQE or ring :
ip_summed, csum
hash
vlan offload
hwtstamps
queue_mapping
As a bonus, this patch removes mlx4 dependency on eth_get_headlen()
which is very often broken enough to give us headaches.
