The Linux network stack expects all GSO SKBs to have ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL (which implies that the frame contains a partial checksum) and the Xen network ring protocol similarly expects an SKB which has GSO set to also have NETRX_csum_blank (which also implies a partial checksum). Therefore drop such frames on receive otherwise they will trigger the warning in skb_gso_segment.

This looks redundant; why not something like:
diff --git a/drivers/net/xen-netfront.c b/drivers/net/xen-netfront.c
