Linus Walleij 4d58b0e90d net: ethernet: cortina: Drop TSO support
[ Upstream commit ac631873c9e7a50d2a8de457cfc4b9f86666403e ]

The recent change to allow large frames without hardware checksumming
slotted in software checksumming in the driver if hardware could not
do it.

This will however upset TSO (TCP Segment Offloading). Typical
error dumps includes this:

skb len=2961 headroom=222 headlen=66 tailroom=0
(...)
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 956 at net/core/dev.c:3259 skb_warn_bad_offload+0x7c/0x108
gemini-ethernet-port: caps=(0x0000010000154813, 0x00002007ffdd7889)

And the packets do not go through.

The TSO implementation is bogus: a TSO enabled driver must propagate
the skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size value to the TSO engine on the NIC.

Drop the size check and TSO offloading features for now: this
needs to be fixed up properly.

After this ethernet works fine on Gemini devices with a direct connected
PHY such as D-Link DNS-313.

Also tested to still be working with a DSA switch using the Gemini
ethernet as conduit interface.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
