[PATCH] hv: don't enable Scatter/Gather

DORMANTno replies

From: Stephen Hemminger <hidden>

The HyperV network driver can do scatter/gather but does not
do checksum offload. Since the network stack requires checksum offload
to do direct transmit (sendfile), netdev_register produces a message
when driver is loaded.
