net/mlx5e: RX, Avoid possible data corruption when relaxed ordering and LRO combined
When HW aggregates packets for an LRO session, it writes the payload
of two consecutive packets of a flow contiguously, so that they usually
share a cacheline.
The first byte of a packet's payload is written immediately after
the last byte of the preceding packet.
In this flow, there are two consecutive write requests to the shared
cacheline:
1. Regular write for the earlier packet.
2. Read-modify-write for the following packet.
In case of relaxed-ordering on, these two writes might be re-ordered.
Using the end padding optimization (to avoid partial write for the last
cacheline of a packet) becomes problematic if the two writes occur
out-of-order, as the padding would overwrite payload that belongs to
the following packet, causing data corruption.
Avoid this by disabling the end padding optimization when both
LRO and relaxed-ordering are enabled.
