Subject: [PATCH 1/3] net: Add support for hardware-offloaded encapsulation

This patch adds support in the kernel for offloading in the NIC Tx and Rx
checksumming for encapsulated packets (such as VXLAN and IP GRE)

Signed-off-by: Joseph Gasparakis <redacted>
Signed-off-by: Peter P Waskiewicz Jr <redacted>
[D.K.] 
 	NETIF_F_HW_CSUM_BIT,		/* Can checksum all the packets.
*/
+	NETIF_F_HW_CSUM_ENC_BIT,	/* Can checksum all inner headers */
 	NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM_BIT,		/* Can checksum TCP/UDP over
IPV6 */
Also #define NETIF_F_HW_CSUM_ENC should be added
