Subject: [PATCH net 0/2] Lift UDP_SEGMENT restriction for egress via device
 w/o csum offload

This is a follow-up to an earlier question [1] if we can make UDP GSO work with
any egress device, even those with no checksum offload capability. That's the
default setup for TUN/TAP.

I leave it to the maintainers to decide if it qualifies as a fix. We plan to
backport it to our v6.6 either way, hence the submission to -net.
