This patch doesn't work. The reason is that NETIF_F_LRO is also turned
on by TSO4/TSO6, which your patch didn't check for. So it ends up
going through the same path and crashing in the same way.

if (virtio_has_feature(vdev, VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_TSO4) ||
virtio_has_feature(vdev, VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_TSO6))
dev->features |= NETIF_F_LRO;

It sounds like this patch is fixing something slightly differently to
my patch fixed. virtnet_set_features() doesn't care about
GUEST_OFFLOADS, it only tests against NETIF_F_LRO. Even if "offloads"
is zero, it will call virtnet_set_guest_offloads(), which triggers the
crash.

So either we need to ensure NETIF_F_LRO is never set, or
virtnet_set_features needs to be updated to check for GUEST_OFFLOADS,
right?
