A small batch of fixes:

1) Fix two regressions in checksum offload handling.
   a) Do not set SCTP packets to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, we don't
      have software fallbacks in the TX path for SCTP checksumming
      and therefore won't be able to handle a divert of a packet
      from a device that can do SCTP checksums to one that cannot.
   b) We propagate certain hardware offloads transparently through
      "software" devices (like vlan and bonding) but we cannot do
      that when we lack software fallbacks in the TX path and this
      is relevant for SCTP and FCoE checksumming.  Get rid of the
      NETIF_F_ALL_TX_OFFLOADS macro since it's misuse is what
      introduced this regression.

2) L2CAP bluetooth connection procedure regression fix from
   Gustavo F. Padovan.

3) L2CAP incomming connections can crash with defer_setup enabled
   because ->parent isn't setup yet, handle that properly.  Also
   from Gustavo.

4) gianfar driver need to be more selective of when the RX parser
   of the chip is enabled, from Sebastian Poehn.

5) r6040 NAPI logic has a bug that can disabled interrupts forever,
   fix from Michael Thalmeier.

Please pull, thanks a lot!
