The u_ether driver has a qmult setting that multiplies the
transmit queue length (which by default is 2).

The intent is that it should be enabled at high/super speed, but
because the code does not explicitly check for USB_SUPER_PLUS,
it is disabled at that speed.

Fix this by ensuring that the queue multiplier is enabled for any
wired link at high speed or above. Using >= for USB_SPEED_*
constants seems correct because it is what the gadget_is_xxxspeed
functions do.

The queue multiplier substantially helps performance at higher
speeds. On a direct SuperSpeed Plus link to a Linux laptop,
iperf3 single TCP stream:

Before (qmult=1): 1.3 Gbps
After  (qmult=5): 3.2 Gbps

Felipe, Greg: Is there anything that I should be doing about this
patch, or should I just expect it to be merged at some point?

If you were thinking of looking at it again when the comments on the
NCM SuperSpeed patches are addressed, I just posted a new version of
those (v3), with a cover letter to explain what changed.

Thanks,
Lorenzo
