As far as I am aware only very old Windows network frontends make use of this style of passing GSO packets from backend to frontend. These frontends can easily be replaced by the freely available Xen Project Windows PV network frontend, which uses the 'default' mechanism for passing GSO packets, which is also used by all Linux frontends. NOTE: Removal of this feature will not cause breakage in old Windows frontends. They simply will no longer receive GSO packets - the packets instead being fragmented in the backend.
