vlan: Fix tcp checksum offloads in Q-in-Q vlans
[ Upstream commit 35d2f80b07bbe03fb358afb0bdeff7437a7d67ff ] It appears that TCP checksum offloading has been broken for Q-in-Q vlans. The behavior was execerbated by the series commit afb0bc972b52 ("Merge branch 'stacked_vlan_tso'") that that enabled accleleration features on stacked vlans. However, event without that series, it is possible to trigger this issue. It just requires a lot more specialized configuration. The root cause is the interaction between how netdev_intersect_features() works, the features actually set on the vlan devices and HW having the ability to run checksum with longer headers. The issue starts when netdev_interesect_features() replaces NETIF_F_HW_CSUM with a combination of NETIF_F_IP_CSUM | NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM, if the HW advertises IP|IPV6 specific checksums. This happens for tagged and multi-tagged packets. However, HW that enables IP|IPV6 checksum offloading doesn't gurantee that packets with arbitrarily long headers can be checksummed. This patch disables IP|IPV6 checksums on the packet for multi-tagged packets.
