Very simple loop optimization with a significant performance impact.
Microbenchmark results, modern x86-64:
buffer size | speed up
------------+---------
1500 | 1.7x
64 | 1.5x
8 | 1.15x
Microbenchmark results, POWER7:
buffer size | speed up
------------+---------
1500 | 5x
64 | 3.3x
8 | 1.13x
There is a lot of room for further improvement at the expense of
code complexity - aligned multibyte reads, LE/BE considerations,
architecture-specific optimizations, etc. This patch still keeps
things simple and readable.

This patch extends the TX/RX packet abstractions with features that will
be used by the e1000e device implementation.
Changes are:
1. Support iovec lists for RX buffers
2. Deeper RX packets parsing
3. Loopback option for TX packets
4. Extended VLAN headers handling
5. RSS processing for RX packets

While computing IP checksum, 'net_checksum_calculate' reads
payload length from the packet. It could exceed the given 'data'
buffer size. Add a check to avoid it.

which it implies are not included manually.
