Subject: [PATCH V2 net-next 1/1] hyperv: Properly handle checksum offload

Do checksum offload only if the client of the driver wants checksum to be
offloaded.

In V1 version of this patch, I  addressed comments from
Stephen Hemminger <stephen@...workplumber.org> and
Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@...il.com>.

In this version of the patch I have addressed comments from
David Miller.

This patch fixes a bug that is exposed in gateway scenarios.
