Subject: [PATCH] ibmvnic: Include header descriptor support for ARP packets

References: bsc#1073912
Patch-mainline: v4.16-rc1
Git-commit: 4eb50ceb5c156a166c0b00ac27f0ff3a0943cdfb

In recent tests with new adapters, it was discovered that ARP
packets were not being properly processed. This patch adds
support for ARP packet headers to be passed to backing adapters,
if necessary.
