Looks like we need a feature flag to tell host guest is able to handle this flag
in incoming packets ...

Is comment above still correct?

... and a separate flag to tell guest it's ok to set this flag in
outgoing packets.
Also - this chunk looks like a hack fixing up a value we
have set incorrectly.
Specifically this clears all flags except VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_CSUM_NOT_INET.
Why do this at all? Do we really want to clear e.g. NEEDS_CSUM? I think we do
not
since csum_start, csum_offset are set.
Also - what will ever set this flag in the header?

Not very informative. Instead, please specify what is it actually.
