[PATCH 3.4 07/23] macvlan: Initialize vlan_features to turn on offload support.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Aug 08 2014 - 18:13:20 EST


3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevic@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 081e83a78db9b0ae1f5eabc2dedecc865f509b98 ]

Macvlan devices do not initialize vlan_features. As a result,
any vlan devices configured on top of macvlans perform very poorly.
Initialize vlan_features based on the vlan features of the lower-level
device.
