Subject: [34-longterm 046/209] net: NETIF_F_HW_CSUM does not imply FCoE CRC offload

From: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@...arflare.com>

  =====================================================================
  | This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release. |
  | If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.|
  =====================================================================

commit 66c68bcc489fadd4f5e8839e966e3a366e50d1d5 upstream.

NETIF_F_HW_CSUM indicates the ability to update an TCP/IP-style 16-bit
checksum with the checksum of an arbitrary part of the packet data,
whereas the FCoE CRC is something entirely different.
