mlx4/en_netdev: allow offloading VXLAN over VLAN

Browse source

ConnectX-3 Pro can offload transmission of VLAN packets with VXLAN inside:
enable tunnel offloads in dev->vlan_features, like it's done with other
NIC drivers (e.g. be2net and ixgbe).

It's no more necessary to change dev->hw_enc_features when VXLAN are added
or removed, since .ndo_features_check() already checks for VXLAN packet
where the UDP destination port matches the configured value. Just set
dev->hw_enc_features when the NIC is initialized, so that overlying VLAN
can correctly inherit the tunnel offload capabilities.

Changes since v1:
- avoid flipping hw_enc_features, instead of calling netdev notifiers,

- squash two patches into a single one
