Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 4/5] xen-netback: handle IPv6 TCP GSO packets from the guest

This patch a xenstore flag, festure-gso-tcpv6, to adevrtise netback can
handle IPv6 TCP GSO packets and creates SKB_GSO_TCPV6 skbs if the frontend
passes an extra segment with the new type XEN_NETIF_GSO_TYPE_TCPV6 added to
netif.h.
