net/mlx5e: xsk: Optimize for unaligned mode with 3072-byte frames
When XSK frame size is 3072 (or another power of two multiplied by 3),
KLM mechanism for NIC virtual memory page mapping can be optimized by
replacing it with KSM.
Before this change, two KLM entries were needed to map an XSK frame that
is not a power of two: one entry maps the UMEM memory up to the frame
length, the other maps the rest of the stride to the garbage page.
When the frame length divided by 3 is a power of two, it can be mapped
using 3 KSM entries, and the fourth will map the rest of the stride to
the garbage page. All 4 KSM entries are of the same size, which allows
for a much faster lookup.
Frame size 3072 is useful in certain use cases, because it allows
packing 4 frames into 3 pages. Generally speaking, other frame sizes
equal to PAGE_SIZE minus a power of two can be optimized in a similar
way, but it will require many more KSMs per frame, which slows down UMRs
a little bit, but more importantly may hit the limit for the maximum
number of KSM entries.
