Do we need a netdev->tso_max so the driver can advertise the maximum TSO
send support by h/w?

Maybe, it's easy to implement.
Add netdev->tso_max
Add sk->sk_tso_max right after sk->sk_route_caps
When sk->sk_route_caps is set, fetch netdev->tso_max via route
and put into sk->sk_tso_max.
Replace "65535" constant in tcp_sync_mss with sk->sk_tso_max.
That shoule be it.
