It turns out we were doing far more than we needed to in the Tx checksum
functions for the drivers.  As a result it hid the fact that the hardware
is actually much more capable of handling generic offloads then previously
realized.

This patch series enables generic Tx checksum support for igb and ixgbe
based Intel server adapters.  In addition it adds a number of other items
such as:
  Inner checksum support for MPLS
  Encapsulated checksum support for igb, igbvf, and ixgbevf
  SCTP CRC offload support for VLAN tunnels, and VFs
  IPv6 extension header support for igb and igbvf
