You are not supposed to change ndev->features here.

From
"https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/netdev-features.txt"
"
 * ndo_set_features:

Hardware should be reconfigured to match passed feature set. The set
should not be altered unless some error condition happens that can't
be reliably detected in ndo_fix_features. In this case, the callback
should update netdev->features to match resulting hardware state.
Errors returned are not (and cannot be) propagated anywhere except dmesg.
(Note: successful return is zero, >0 means silent error.)"

This means only in

I don't understand this part. 

As you are not changing hardware state in ndo_set_features, I'm not sure why
you even need ndo_set_features callback.

You didn't take my feedback about using ndo_fix_features().

Please read this.
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/netdev-features.txt
"Part II: Controlling enabled features"
"Part III: Implementation hints"

Also look at how _netdev_update_features() works and calls ndo_fix_features()
and ndo_set_features()
