All the LRO users need it due to the next reasons:

1. If scatter is enabled - The dpdk user can limit the LRO session size created 
by the HW by this field, if no field like that - there is no way to limit it.
2. No scatter - the dpdk user may want to limit the LRO packet size in order to 
save enough tail-room in the mbuf for its own usage.
3. The limitation of max_rx_pkt_len is not enough - doesn't make sense to limit 
LRO traffic as single packet.
