This patchset does a bit of cleanup of leftovers after block callbacks
patchset. The main part is patch 2, which restores the original handling
of tc offload feature flag.

Jiri, this series does not apply cleanly to net-next.

I will respin.

Also, you should really work out the block offload semantics
with Jakub, continuing the discussion of patch #2.

I have some ideas. I could let driver to enable/disable already
registered callback. Will look at it.

The cb enable disable according to NETIF_F_HW_TC ethtool flag could be
done. It will require some additional work in many drivers. Most of the
drivers do not effect the flag change.

I will rebase and repost this patchset for now to fix the regression
and work on NETIF_F_HW_TC handling in a follow-up.
