This sounds good.

Yes, thanks for the catching.

For v4 and v6, we could use something like
unsigned int feature_for_host_tso6[] = {
VIRTIO_NET_F_HOST_ECN,
};
unsigned int feature_for_host_tso4[] = {
VIRTIO_NET_F_HOST_ECN,
}
To avoid the following open-coding for ECN. And probably we need another
device specific dependency table and let virtio core do this instead.

Right this sounds good.

More compact, looks good. Thanks
