net: stmmac: drop the queue-0 pinning for GSO frames

Browse source

stmmac_select_queue() forces every GSO frame (TCPv4/TCPv6/UDP-L4) onto
TX queue 0, relying on the legacy assumption that at least queue 0 is
always TSO/USO capable. This is no longer needed since
stmmac_features_check() already validates each GSO frame against the
capabilities of the queue it is mapped to, clearing the checksum and GSO
features for queues that cannot perform TSO (e.g. TBS queues or queues
without TX checksum offload support).

Remove stmmac_select_queue() so GSO frames are selected through the
regular queue selection path (XPS, flow hashing and priority mapping)
and can be spread across all TX queues. This also fixes the case where
queue 0 is not TSO-capable while other queues are, which previously
forced all TSO traffic into software GSO. Non-GSO traffic is unaffected,
since the core already falls back to netdev_pick_tx() when ndo_select_queue
is not set.
