tg3: Work around HW/FW limitations with vlan encapsulated frames

TG3 appears to have an issue performing TSO and checksum offloading correclty when the frame has been vlan encapsulated (non-accelrated). In these cases, tcp checksum is not correctly updated. This patch attempts to work around this issue. After the patch, 802.1ad vlans start working correctly over tg3 devices.
