Figured I would poke someone to add this patch to the stable queue - I don't see it in https://patchwork.kernel.org/bundle/netdev/stable/?state=* right now. This patch is reported to fix a severe upload speed regression in many Intel wireless adapters existing since kernel 5.9, as described in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=209913
commit 81a86e1bd8e7060ebba1718b284d54f1238e9bf9 Author: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> Date: Mon Jan 25 07:09:49 2021 -0800 iwlwifi: provide gso_type to GSO packets net/core/tso.c got recent support for USO, and this broke iwlfifi because the driver implemented a limited form of GSO. Providing ->gso_type allows for skb_is_gso_tcp() to provide a correct result.
