For GSO on output, is there a generic fallback for any driver that
does not specifically implement GSO?
Absolutely, in fact that's mainly what it's there for.
I don't think there is any issue. The knob is there via
ethtool for people who really want to disable it.
Just to be paranoid (who me?) we are then at a point where what happened
a couple months ago with forwarding between 10G and IPoIB won't happen
again - where things failed because a 10G NIC had LRO enabled by default?
we still have the NETIF_F_LRO flag which Jeff will keep around. Perhaps the
IPoIB code can force this to _off_ when setting it up? (or at least warn about it).
