This is a bit extreme. I would attempt to remove NETIF_F_GSO_MASK instead.
if (skb_is_gso(skb)) {
if (skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size < 16 ||
skb_shinfo(skb)->nr_frags + 1 > OTX2_MAX_FRAGS_IN_SQE))
features &= ~NETIF_F_GSO_MASK;
}
This would very often end up with 1-MSS packets with fewer fragments.

Then you need to keep this check for non GSO packets.
One way to trigger this is to run netperf with tiny fragments.
TCP is unable to cook GSO packets, because we hit MAX_SKB_FRAGS before
even filling a single MSS.
netperf -H $remote -t TCP_SENDFILE -- -m 10
