When doing a lot (128) of large writes (256K) we can hit the cxgb3_snd_win
check pretty easily. The driver's xmit thread then takes 100% of the cpu.
The driver should not be returning -EAGAIN for this problem. It should
be returing -ENOBUFS, then when the window is opened again it should
queue the xmit thread (it already wakes the xmit thread).

We were using the shost work queue which ended up being
a little akward since all iscsi hosts need a thread for
scanning, but only drivers hooked into libiscsi need
a workqueue for transmitting. So this patch moves the
xmit workqueue to the lib.

Need to make sure the outgoing pdu can fit into a single skb. When
calulating the max. outgoing pdu payload size, take into consideration
of
- data can be held in the skb's fragment list, assume 512 bytes per
fragment, and
- data can be held in the headroom.

This patch implements the cxgb3i iscsi connection acceleration for the
open-iscsi initiator.
The cxgb3i driver offers the iscsi PDU based offload:
- digest insertion and verification
- payload direct-placement into host memory buffer.
