Can you clarify the relation between this patch to "[PATCHv3] IB/ipoib:
HW checksum support" patch posted later by Michael? for example, I see
that you patch makes IPoIB to publish the NETIF_F_IP_CSUM capability and
Michael's one publishes NETIF_F_HW_CSUM, etc

didn't you want to use NETIF_F_HW_CSUM here?

can you explain why this line belongs specifically to set_tx_csum() ?
