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.

Compile tested whole series only. I'll do more thorough testing next
week after I prepare new testing machine.
Sorry this just missed the merge window.

Please submit this again once the net-next tree opens back up.

Thanks!
