mv643xx_eth: enable hardware TX checksumming with vlan tags
Although mv643xx_eth has no hardware support for inserting a vlan
tag by twiddling some bits in the TX descriptor, it does support
hardware TX checksumming on packets where the IP header starts {a
limited set of values other than 14} bytes into the packet.
This patch sets mv643xx_eth's ->vlan_features to NETIF_F_SG |
NETIF_F_IP_CSUM, which prevents the stack from checksumming vlan'ed
packets in software, and if vlan tags are present on a transmitted
packet, notifies the hardware of this fact by toggling the right
bits in the TX descriptor.
