aoe: for performance support larger packet payloads

tAdd adds the ability to work with large packets composed of a number of
segments, using the scatter gather feature of the block layer (biovecs)
and the network layer (skb frag array).  The motivation is the performance
gained by using a packet data payload greater than a page size and by
using the network card's scatter gather feature.

Users of the out-of-tree aoe driver already had these changes, but since
early 2011, they have complained of increased memory utilization and
higher CPU utilization during heavy writes.[1] The commit below appears
related, as it disables scatter gather on non-IP protocols inside the
harmonize_features function, even when the NIC supports sg.

      net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features().

With that regression in place, transmits always linearize sg AoE packets,
but in-kernel users did not have this patch.  Before 2.6.38, though, these
changes were working to allow sg to increase performance.
