If you want to disable LRO in IPVS
net/ipv4/devinet.c:inet_forward_change() is an example what
should be done in process context if you want to disable
LRO for all existing devices. Then call skb_warn_if_lro
near or in IP_VS_XMIT and also before calling ip_local_out().
May be LRO can be disabled when the first virtual or
may be real service is added to allow LRO to work if IPVS
is just compiled.
