Subject: [PATCH 3/3] be2net: Bug fix to properly update ethtool
	tx-checksumming after ethtool -K <ifname> tx off

This is a fix for a bug which was a result of wrong use of checksum offload flag.
The status of tx-checksumming was not changed from on to off
after a 'ethtool -K <ifname> tx off' operation.
Use the proper checksum offload flag NETIF_F_HW_CSUM instead of 
NETIF_F_IP_CSUM and NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM.
Patch is against net-2.6 tree.
