This patch adds support of encap offload for ath10k which uses ethernet
datapath. The feature is enabled via a new module parmeter.
If enabled, the driver will enable the feature on a per vif basis if the requirements
are met.
Currently only implement for 32bit target with 3-addr AP and STA mode.
Improves TCP throughput when the feature is enabled.
Tested-on: QCA9984 firmware version 10.4-3.9.0.2-00131(Netgear R7800)

RFC because it's been almost two years since the original patch was
sent.
Changes since original John Crispin's v10 patch
* check if the target is 32bit
* remove the ATH10K_SKB_F_HW_80211_ENCAP flag and use tx_info flag
instead
* add ath10k_mac_op_update_vif_offload function for runtime change
Should we use a module param for frame mode like in ath11k instead a
dedicated param for each datapath and should we try to use
tx_status_ext()?
