vmxnet3: Pad short frames to minimum size (60 bytes)
When running VMware ESXi under qemu-kvm the guest discards frames that are too short. Short ARP Requests will be dropped, this prevents guests on the same bridge as VMware ESXi from communicating. This patch simply adds the padding on the network device itself.
