[PATCH net-2.6] sfc: Set ip_summed correctly for page buffers passed to GRO

[PATCH net-2.6] sfc: Set ip_summed correctly for page buffers passed to GRO

[Ben Hutchings]

Page buffers containing packets with an incorrect checksum or using a
protocol not handled by hardware checksum offload were previously not
passed to LRO.  The conversion to GRO changed this, but did not set
the ip_summed value accordingly.

This affects 2.6.31 and seems like a candidate for a stable update.

[PATCH net-2.6] sfc: Really allow RX checksum offload to be disabled

[Ben Hutchings]

We have never checked the efx_nic::rx_checksum_enabled flag everywhere
we should, and since the switch to GRO we don't check it anywhere.
It's simplest to check it in the one place where we initialise the
per-packet checksummed flag.

I'm not sure whether this is serious enough to merit a stable update.
It's not a recent regression.

This patch only applies to net-next-2.6, so I can't see how it could
be a -stable candidate :-)

So I've applied it there.

Applied.

Queued up for -stable, thanks.

The register name update in net-next-2.6 changed the context for this
patch.  I'll send a new patch that will apply to the earlier versions.
