Up until now, the __dpaa2_eth_tx function used a single FD on the stack to construct the structure to be enqueued. Since we are now preparing the ground work to add support for TSO done in software at the driver level, the same function needs to work with an array of FDs and enqueue as many as the build_*_fd functions create. Make the necessary adjustments in order to do this. These include: keeping an array of FDs in a percpu structure, cleaning up the necessary FDs before populating it and then, retrying the enqueue process up till all the generated FDs were enqueued or until we reach the maximum number retries. This patch does not change the fact that only a single FD will result from a __dpaa2_eth_tx call but rather just creates the necessary changes for the next patch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
