[PATCH v4 net-next 02/21] net: Introduce crc offload for tcp ddp ulp

This commit introduces support for CRC offload to direct data placement
ULP on the receive side. Both DDP and CRC share a common API to
initialize the offload for a TCP socket. But otherwise, both can
be executed independently.

On the receive side, CRC offload relies on a new SKB bit that
indicates that no CRC error was encountered while processing this packet.
If all packets of a ULP message have this bit set, then the CRC
verification for the message can be skipped, as hardware already checked
it.

The following patches will set and use this bit to perform NVME-TCP
CRC offload.

A subsequent series, will add NVMe-TCP transmit side CRC support.
