There are many offload capabilities defined that are not well thought out. In particular we do not distinguish between ipv4 and ipv6 for things like cksum and tso so there's no way to disable individual features. The ability to tweak LRO is clearly needed and clearly belong as an ifnet capability but unilateraly deciding this is the wrong approach.
