[PATCH] cxgb3: Set vlan_feature on net_device

From: <hidden>
Date: 2012-07-27 18:22:46
Subsystem: cxgb3 ethernet driver (cxgb3), networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Potnuri Bharat Teja, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

cxgb3 interface has a bad performance when VLAN is set. On my current
setup, a PowerLinux 7R2, I am able to get around 7 Gbps on a TCP_STREAM
(8 instances, 4k message).
With this patch, I am able to reach 9.5 Gbps.
