Bug Description
[Impact]
Increases throughput by more than 2x, as measured by the iperf benchmark.
[Test Case]
iperf -c 192.168.122.10 -P5
[Fix]
cc18a7543d2f6 net-next/hinic: add checksum offload and TSO support
[Regression Risk]
Clean cherry-pick restricted to a single driver that has been explicitly tested. A regression risk is that these bugs in these new features, which are enabled by default, could impact existing deployments. These features can, however, be disabled by ethtool which helps mitigate that risk.
