The hw.cxgbe.kern_tls tunable was used for this in the past and if it
was set then all T6 adapters would be configured for KTLS operation and
could not be reconfigured for TOE without a reload. With this change
ifconfig can be used to manipulate toe and txtls caps like any other
caps and will configure the hardware appropriately. hw.cxgbe.kern_tls
continues to work as usual but its effects are not permanent any more.
- Enable nic_ktls_ofld in the default configuration file and use the firmware instead of direct register manipulation to apply/rollback KTLS configuration. This allows the driver to switch the hardware between TOE and KTLS mode in a safe manner. Note that the configuration is adapter-wide and not per-port.
- Remove the kern_tls config file as it works with 100G T6 cards only and leads to firmware crashes with 25G cards. The configurations included with the driver (with the exception of the FPGA configs) are supposed to work with all adapters.
