amd-xgbe: Provide support for receive side scaling

This patch provides support for receive side scaling (RSS). RSS allows
for spreading incoming network packets across the Rx queues.  When used
in conjunction with the per DMA channel interrupt support, this allows
the receive processing to be spread across multiple processors.
