Lorenzo Bianconi d22ceb8d24 airoha: Improve LRO performances
Add hardware TCP Large Receive Offload (LRO) support to the airoha_eth
driver, leveraging the EN7581/AN7583 SoC's 8 dedicated LRO hardware queues
mapped to RX queues 24–31. LRO hw offloading does not support
Scatter-Gather (SG) so it is required to increase the page_pool allocation
order to 2 for RX queues 24–31 (LRO queues).

Performance comparison between GRO and hw LRO has been carried out using
a 10Gbps NIC:

GRO: ~2.7 Gbps
LRO: ~8.1 Gbps

Lorenzo Bianconi e1915674ab airoha: Introduce support multi-serdes on the same GDM port
EN7581 or AN7583 SoCs support connecting multiple external SerDes (e.g.
Ethernet or USB SerDes) to GDM3 or GDM4 ports via a hw arbiter that
manages the traffic in a TDM manner. As a result multiple net_devices can
connect to the same GDM{3,4} port and there is a theoretical "1:n"
relation between GDM ports and net_devices.

This series introduces support for multiple net_devices connected to the
same Frame Engine (FE) GDM port (GDM3 or GDM4) via an external hw
arbiter. Please note GDM1 or GDM2 does not support the connection with
the external arbiter.
