Dear Simon Guinot,

The Ethernet controller found in the Armada 370, 380 and 385 SoCs don't
support TCP/IP checksumming with frame sizes larger than 1600 bytes.

This patch fixes the issue by disabling the features NETIF_F_IP_CSUM and
NETIF_F_TSO for the Armada 370 and compatibles SoCs when the MTU is set
to a value greater than 1600 bytes.

Cc: <redacted> # v3.8+
The title of this patch should be:

	net: mvneta: disable IP checksum with jumbo frames for Armada 370

because it is touching the network driver, and not the mvebu ARM core code.

Thanks,

Thomas
