[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 5/5] net: virtio-net and vmxnet3 can use netmap offloadings

[Vincenzo Maffione <v.maffione@gmail.com>]

With this patch we remove the existing checks in the virtio-net
and vmxnet3 frontends that prevents them from using
offloadings with backends different from TAP (e.g. netmap).
