The XDP_TX feature is not supported before, and all the frames
which are deemed to do XDP_TX action actually do the XDP_DROP
action. So this patch adds the XDP_TX support to FEC driver.
I tested the performance of XDP_TX feature in XDP_DRV and XDP_SKB
modes on i.MX8MM-EVK and i.MX8MP-EVK platforms respectively, and
the test steps and results are as follows.
Step 1: Board A connects to the FEC port of the DUT and runs the
pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh script to generate and send
burst traffic to DUT. Note that the length of packet was set to
64 bytes and the procotol of packet was UDP in my test scenario.
Step 2: The DUT runs the xdp2 program to transmit received UDP
packets back out on the same port where they were received.
Below test result runs should have some more explaination, please.

For this driver, I would like to see a benchmark comparison between
XDP_TX and XDP_REDIRECT.
As below code does could create a situation where XDP_REDIRECT is just
as fast as XDP_TX. (Note, that I expect XDP_TX to be faster than
XDP_REDIRECT.)

V2 changes:
According to Jakub's comments, the V2 patch adds two changes.
1. Call txq_trans_cond_update() in fec_enet_xdp_tx_xmit() to avoid
tx timeout as XDP shares the queues with kernel stack.
2. Tx processing shouldn't call any XDP (or page pool) APIs if the
"budget" is 0.
V3 changes:
1. Remove the second change in V2, because this change has been
separated into another patch and it has been submmitted to the
upstream [1].

You should pass along the "sync" length value to fec_enet_xdp_tx_xmit().
Because we know DMA comes from same device (it is already DMA mapped
to), then we can do a DMA sync "to_device" with only the sync length.

XDP_TX can avoid this conversion to xdp_frame.
