Currently hns3 driver only handle the xmit skb with one level of
fraglist skb, add handling for multi level by calling hns3_tx_bd_num()
recursively when calculating bd num and calling hns3_fill_skb_to_desc()
recursively when filling tx desc.
When the skb has a fraglist level of 24, the skb is simply dropped and
stats.max_recursion_level is added to record the error. Move the stat
handling from hns3_nic_net_xmit() to hns3_nic_maybe_stop_tx() in order
to handle different error stat and add the 'max_recursion_level' and
'hw_limitation' stat.
Note that the max recursive level as 24 is chose according to below:
commit 48a1df65334b ("skbuff: return -EMSGSIZE in skb_to_sgvec to
prevent overflow").
And that we are not able to find a testcase to verify the recursive
fraglist case, so Fixes tag is not provided.

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.
