Herbert Xu f83ef8c0b5 [IPV6]: Added GSO support for TCPv6 
This patch adds GSO support for IPv6 and TCPv6.  This is based on a patch
by Ananda Raju <Ananda.Raju@neterion.com>.  His original description is:

	This patch enables TSO over IPv6. Currently Linux network stacks
	restricts TSO over IPv6 by clearing of the NETIF_F_TSO bit from
	"dev->features". This patch will remove this restriction.

	This patch will introduce a new flag NETIF_F_TSO6 which will be used
	to check whether device supports TSO over IPv6. If device support TSO
	over IPv6 then we don't clear of NETIF_F_TSO and which will make the
	TCP layer to create TSO packets. Any device supporting TSO over IPv6
	will set NETIF_F_TSO6 flag in "dev->features" along with NETIF_F_TSO.

	In case when user disables TSO using ethtool, NETIF_F_TSO will get
	cleared from "dev->features". So even if we have NETIF_F_TSO6 we don't
	get TSO packets created by TCP layer.

	SKB_GSO_TCPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_TCP to make it generic GSO packet.
	SKB_GSO_UDPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_UDP as UFO is not a IPv4 feature.
	UFO is supported over IPv6 also

	The following table shows there is significant improvement in
	throughput with normal frames and CPU usage for both normal and jumbo.
