Don't we have a bigger problem if it doesn't support ECN with ipv6 TSO?
We either have to disable ECN when TSO is enabled like we used to for
ipv4, or provide the gso tcp segmentation for ipv6.  Right?
Good point.  In that case we should also add GSO for IPv6.  It shouldn't
be too bad because all we need to do is verify the integrity of the
extension headers in terms of their length, not their content.

I wonder if this chip handles all the extension headers or not.

Cheers,
