This is not a sufficient justification to make this a fix.
As Michael was already alluding to HW GRO usually covers fewer
protocols and is less effective than SW GRO. Normal config is
to have both enabled. Please explain if there's anything special
about virtio here, because I haven't heard of people disabling
SW GRO because HW GRO is already enabled.

I think this should continue to target net-next with no Fixes tag.
