bcm53xx: enable GRO

Historically, GRO on bcm53xx target is disabled because it increases
forwarding overhead. As fraglist GRO is now used by default, this
overhead is minimized.

In many cases GRO improves network performance however it comes at a
cost of chacksums calculations. In case of slow CPU and missing hardware
csum calculation support GRO can actually decrease network speed.
On BCM4708 *disabling* GRO results in following NAT masquarade speed
changes:
1. 364 Mb/s → 396 Mb/s (packet steering disabled)
2. 341 Mb/s → 566 Mb/s (packet steering enabled)
