Going to back to my commit, it stated that net/core/tso.c was only
dealing with basic stuff.

Adding vlan support would need some changes there, I guess this should
be done if there is enough interest and testing.

commit 3d5b459ba0e3788ab471e8cb98eee89964a9c5e8 net: tso: add
UDP segmentation support

Note that like TCP, we do not support additional encapsulations,
and that checksums must be offloaded to the NIC.
