[PATCH 0/2] fix kernel crash with macvtap on top of LRO

At the moment, macvtap crashes are observed if macvtap is attached
to an interface with LRO enabled.
The crash in question is BUG() in macvtap_skb_to_vnet_hdr.
This happens because several drivers set gso_size but not gso_type
in incoming skbs.
The following patches fix this for
Additionally, cbf1de72324a8105ddcc3d9ce9acbc613faea17e is required
to fix this for broadcom - would it make sense to cherry-pick
this patch into 3.8?

I tested that the patch fixes the crash for ixgbe but
don't have qlogic hardware to fix.  I also only tested TCP.

Feedback wellcome.
