net/mlx5e: Split TX acceleration offloads into two phases
After previous modifications, the offloads are no longer called one by
one, the pi is calculated and the wqe is cleared on between of TLS and
IPSEC offloads, which doesn't quite fit mlx5e_accel_handle_tx's purpose.
This patch splits mlx5e_accel_handle_tx into two functions that
correspond to two logical phases of running offloads:
1. Before fetching a WQE. Here runs the code that can post WQEs on its
own, before the main WQE is fetched. It's the main part of TLS offload.
2. After fetching a WQE. Here runs the code that updates the WQE's
fields, but can't post other WQEs any more. It's a minor part of TLS
offload that sets the tisn field in the cseg, and eseg-based offloads
(currently IPSEC, and later patches will move GENEVE and checksum
offloads there, too).
It allows to make mlx5e_xmit take care of all actions needed to transmit
a packet in the right order, improve the structure of the code and
reduce unnecessary operations. The structure will be further improved in
the following patches (all eseg-based offloads will be moved to a single
place, and reserving space for the main WQE will happen between phase 1
and phase 2 of offloads to eliminate unneeded data movements).
