i40e/i40evf: Add support for mapping pages with DMA attributes
This patch adds support for DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC and DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING. By enabling both of these for the Rx path we are able to see performance improvements on architectures that implement either one due to the fact that page mapping and unmapping only has to sync what is actually being used instead of the entire buffer. In addition by enabling the weak ordering attribute enables a performance improvement for architectures that can associate a memory ordering with a DMA buffer such as Sparc.
