Jeff, as a heads-up, this patch and the corresponding one for fm10k
will no longer apply now that the ndo has changed. This was changed by
5f35227e ("net: Generalize ndo_gso_check to ndo_features_check"). The
update needed is trivial and is just due to the change in the function
signature but I'm not sure where you are in the testing process with
this.
