This patch enables 'can_dma_sg' flag for ax88179_178a device if the attached host controller supports building packet from discontinuous buffers(DMA SG is possible), so both frame header and skb data buffers can be passed to usb stack via urb->sg, then skb data copy can be saved. With the patch, CPU utilization decreased much in iperf test at client mode.
