Please CC people who gave you feedback (Willem). 

I don't feel good about this series. IPv6 is not optional any more.
AFAIU you have some issues with csum support in your device? Can you
use .ndo_features_check() to handle this?

The change in semantics of NETIF_F_GSO_UDP_L4 from "v4 and v6" to 
"just v4" can trip people over; this is not a new feature people 
may be depending on the current semantics.

Willem, what are your thoughts on this?
