Allow user configuring RXCSUM separately with ethtool -K,
reusing the existing virtnet_set_guest_offloads helper
that configures RXCSUM for XDP. This is conditional on
VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_GUEST_OFFLOADS.

If Rx checksum is disabled, LRO should also be disabled.

The first patch was merged into net.

Please wait until that is merged into net-next, as this depends on the
other patch.

v2:
* LRO depends the rx csum
* remove the unnecessary check

When can vi->guest_offloads have bits set outside the mask of
vi->guest_offloads_capable?
In this case, we can use only vi->guest_offloads. and
guest_offloads_capable will not be used any more.
so should we remove guest_offloads_capable ?
That bitmap stores the capabilities of the device as learned at
initial device probe. I don't see how it can be removed.
Hi Willem
guest_offloads_capable was introduced by
a02e8964eaf9 ("virtio-net: ethtool configurable LRO")
and used only for LRO. Now we don't use it anymore, right ?
because this patch (virtio-net: ethtool configurable RXCSUM)
doesn't use it.
