This patch series contains following fixes-
* Performace drop because driver was forcing adapter not to check
  destination IP for LRO.
* driver was not issuing qlcnic_fw_cmd_set_drv_version() to 83xx adapter
  becasue of improper handling of QLCNIC_FW_CAPABILITY_MORE_CAPS

bit.

Please apply to net.

Applied, what exactly does that destination IP check do?

When a destination IP is programmed, adapter will perform LRO only on TCP packets destined to the programmed IP address. 
When the adapter is programmed to skip destination IP check, adapter performs LRO on TCP packets destined to all IP addresses.

Thanks,
Shahed
