Commit fd38f734 (igbvf: convert to ndo_fix_features) removed last use
of old ethtool ops for controlling netdevice's features. This series
finishes the cleanup and extends feature pool to 64 bits.

Also, there's additional patch that removes NETIF_F_NO_CSUM as it is
now, and has been for some time, equivalent to NETIF_F_HW_CSUM.

To see the new features in action, you need ethtool patched with:

Not much has changed in those patches compared to last version I posted
in June.
Hi Michal

This reminds me current net-next is busted for bond/vlan, I dont know
why.

$ ethtool -k eth1

$ ip link show dev vlan.103

But :

$ ethtool -k vlan.103
Offload parameters for vlan.103:
rx-checksumming: off
tx-checksumming: off
scatter-gather: off
tcp-segmentation-offload: off
udp-fragmentation-offload: off

tx-vlan-offload: off
ntuple-filters: off
receive-hashing: off

So basically all features but GRO are off.
