There is a mistake in checking the gso_prefix mask when passing large
packets to a guest. The wrong shift is applied to the bit - the raw skb
gso type is used rather then the translated one. This leads to large packets
being handed to the guest without the GSO metadata. This patch fixes the
check.
The mistake manifested as errors whilst running Microsoft HCK large packet
offload tests between a pair of Windows 8 VMs. I have verified this patch
fixes those errors.

gso_type here is XEN_NETIF_GSO_TYPE_TCPV4, vif->gso_prefix_mask is
initialised with GSO_BIT(TCPV4) et al. Where
#define GSO_BIT(type) \
(1 << XEN_NETIF_GSO_TYPE_ ## type)
So,

But it might be nice to use BIT() from bitops.h for both GSO_BIT and the
check, since it took me quite a bit of wandering around to figure out
how these ended up the same.
Ian.

Ok. I'll come up with a separate patch for that.
