Well, my TCP is very rusty and I have no way to test it (I don't
have anything that does TSO), but I've attached a stab at a patch
to do this.

Maybe it can be used as a starting point for this, if others think
it makes sense.

The "#ifdef notyet" in the patch would become something like:
# if __FreeBSD_version >= NNNN
when a change to add if_hw_tsomaxseg is done, was what I was
thinking.
