[PATCH net] macvlan: Disable LRO on lowerdev; warn if it's turned back on

[Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>]

Large Receive Offload (LRO) is only appropriate for packets that are
destined for the host, and should be disabled if received packets may
be forwarded.

Further, macvtap_skb_to_vnet_hdr() will BUG() on a packet received
with LRO (but not GRO).

I'm not really familiar with macvlan so I'm not certain that this should
be applied to all modes.

Ben.
