It was recently found out that GSO on 57710/57711 was broken, due to packets
being sent without a valid IP checksum. 

Commit 057cf65 "bnx2x: Fix GSO for 57710/57711 chips" partially fixed this
issue, but failed to set the correct IP checksum when receiving GSO packets
via bridges, as such packets enter bnx2x_tx_split() and the FW flags needed
to calculate IP checksum were erroneously set in the incorrect
buffer descriptor.

This patch re-enables GSO in said scenario for 57710/57711 chips.

Hi Dave,

Please consider applying this to `net'.

Thanks,
