net: remove netdevice gso_min_segs
After introduction of ndo_features_check(), we believe that very specific checks for rare features should not be done in core networking stack. No driver uses gso_min_segs yet, so we revert this feature and save few instructions per tx packet in fast path. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
