i40e advertises IFF_SUPP_NOFCS, allowing users to use the SO_NOFCS
socket option. However, this option is silently ignored, as the driver
does not check skb->no_fcs, and always enables FCS insertion offload.
Fix this by removing the advertisement of IFF_SUPP_NOFCS.
This behavior can be reproduced with a simple AF_PACKET socket:
import socket
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_PACKET, socket.SOCK_RAW)
s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, 43, 1) # SO_NOFCS
s.bind(("eth0", 0))
s.send(b'\xff' * 64)
Previously, send() succeeds but the driver ignores SO_NOFCS.
With this change, send() fails with -EPROTONOSUPPORT, as expected.
