[PATCH net 1/2] net/mlx4_en: Don't attempt to TX offload the outer UDP checksum for VXLAN

From: Or Gerlitz <hidden>
Date: 2014-10-30 13:59:33
Subsystem: mellanox ethernet driver (mlx4_en), mellanox mlx4 core vpi driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Tariq Toukan, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

For VXLAN/NVGRE encapsulation, the current HW doesn't support offloading
both the outer UDP TX checksum and the inner TCP/UDP TX checksum. 

The driver doesn't advertize SKB_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM, however we are wrongly
telling the HW to offload the outer UDP checksum for encapsulated packets,
fix that.

Fixes: 837052d0ccc5 ('net/mlx4_en: Add netdev support for TCP/IP
		     offloads of vxlan tunneling')
