[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] ixgbe: remove useless fields in tx_offload on TCP checksum request

[David Marchand]

From: Didier Pallard <didier.pallard at 6wind.com>

According to Table 7-38: Valid Fields by Offload Option
of Intel ® 82599 10 GbE Controller Datasheet,
L4LEN field is not needed for L4 XSUM computation by the hardware.
So remove l4_len from tx_offload_mask in ixgbe_set_xmit_ctx
function used to build the context transmitted to the hardware.
