3.16.42-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: stephen hemminger <[email protected]> [ Upstream commit a50af86dd49ee1851d1ccf06dd0019c05b95e297 ] Hyper-V (and Azure) support using NVGRE which requires some extra space for encapsulation headers. Because of this the largest allowed TSO packet is reduced. For older releases, hard code a fixed reduced value. For next release, there is a better solution which uses result of host offload negotiation. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.
