qlge: remove NETIF_F_TSO6 flag
It is werid that qlge driver supports NETIF_F_TSO6 but not NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM. This also causes some kernel warning [1] when VLAN device setups on a qlge interface. I think the qlge hardware doesn't support NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM, so we have to just remove the NETIF_F_TSO6 flag. After this patch, the TCP/IPv6 traffic becomes normal again, no kernel warnings any more. NOTE: I only tested it on 2.6.32 kernel, even if the upstream kernel could fix this automatically (it is hard to track NETIF* flags), removing it is also safe. 1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=891839 Cc: Jitendra Kalsaria <jitendra.kalsaria@qlogic.com> Cc: Ron Mercer <ron.mercer@qlogic.com> Cc: linux-driver@qlogic.com Cc: David S.
