This sentence may need rephrasing.
Or we may want a new netdev
feature like RX_GSO since the guest offloads for virtio-net is
actually to receive GSO packet.

Or we can try not advertise LRO is control guest offloads is not
enabled. This solves the warning but will still slow down the traffic.
IMO gro-hw fits pretty well, patch looks good.
