The ibmveth driver is a virtual Ethernet driver used on IBM pSeries systems.
Gso packets can be sent between LPARS (virtual hosts) without segmentation,
by flagging gso packets using one of two methods depending on the firmware
version. Some gso packet may not be correctly identified by the receiver.
This patch-set corrects this issue.
