net/mlx5e: RX, Drop oversized packets in non-linear mode
Currently the driver has an inconsistent behaviour between modes when it comes to oversized packets that are not dropped through the physical MTU check in HW. This can happen for Multi Host configurations where each port has a different MTU. Current behavior: 1) Striding RQ in linear mode drops the packet in SW and counts it with oversize_pkts_sw_drop. 2) Striding RQ in non-linear mode allows it like a normal packet. 3) Legacy RQ can't receive oversized packets by design: the RX WQE uses MTU sized packet buffers. This inconsistency is not a violation of the netdev policy [1] but it is better to be consistent across modes. This patch aligns (2) with (1) and (3). One exception is added for LRO: don't drop the oversized packet if it is an LRO packet. As now rq->hw_mtu always needs to be updated during the MTU change flow, drop the reset avoidance optimization from mlx5e_change_mtu(). Extract the CQE LRO segments reading into a helper function as it is used twice now.
