Wouldn't it be confusing to add this another different "offload". That's
just confusing.

I still like "switch" the best. If it passes packets around, it's a
"switch", +-. Everybody understand what's going on if you use "switch".
If you use "offload", everybody is confused...

Those are all *legitimate offloads* ;->
The macvlan one looks a little creepy. Perhaps we could eventually
merge all that stuff together with this effort.
