4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vlad Yasevich <vyasev...@gmail.com>


[ Upstream commit 2836b4f224d4fd7d1a2b23c3eecaf0f0ae199a74 ]

Since virtio does not provide it's own ndo_features_check handler,
TSO, and now checksum offload, are disabled for stacked vlans.
Re-enable the support and let the host take care of it.  This
restores/improves Guest-to-Guest performance over Q-in-Q vlans.
