This patch introduces support of DMA SG if the USB host controller
attached by usbnet device is capable of building packet from
discontinuous buffers.
Firstly, one header for usb transfer is often needed for device, and
this patch introduces one extra small buffer to hold the header, then
we can avoid move or copy data over the whole skb.
Secondaly, the patch supports passing the skb fragment buffers to
usb stack directly via urb->sg.
