Hyper-V (and Azure) support using NVGRE which requires some extra space
for encapsulation headers. Because of this the largest allowed TSO
packet is reduced.

For older releases, hard code a fixed reduced value.  For next release,
there is a better solution which uses result of host offload
negotiation.

When we change MTU or the number of channels on a netvsc device we get the
following logged:

 hv_netvsc bf5edba8...: net device safe to remove
 hv_netvsc: hv_netvsc channel opened successfully
 hv_netvsc bf5edba8...: Send section size: 6144, Section count:2560
 hv_netvsc bf5edba8...: Device MAC 00:15:5d:1e:91:12 link state up

This information is useful as debug at most.

Mostly simple overlapping changes.

For example, David Ahern's adjacency list revamp in 'net-next'
conflicted with an adjacency list traversal bug fix in 'net'.

This reverts commit e3f74b841d48
("hv_netvsc: report vmbus name in ethtool")'
because of problem introduced by commit f9a56e5d6a0ba
("Drivers: hv: make VMBus bus ids persistent").
This changed the format of the vmbus name and this new format is too
long to fit in the bus_info field of ethtool.

<title>netvsc: fix incorrect receive checksum offloading</title>

<content type='text'>
The Hyper-V netvsc driver was looking at the incorrect status bits
in the checksum info. It was setting the receive checksum unnecessary
flag based on the IP header checksum being correct. The checksum
flag is skb is about TCP and UDP checksum status. Because of this
bug, any packet received with bad TCP checksum would be passed
up the stack and to the application causing data corruption.
The problem is reproducible via netcat and netem.

This had a side effect of not doing receive checksum offload
on IPv6. The driver was also also always doing checksum offload
independent of the checksum setting done via ethtool.

<title>hv_netvsc: fix a race between netvsc_send() and netvsc_init_buf()</title>

<content type='text'>
Fix in commit 880988348270 ("hv_netvsc: set nvdev link after populating
chn_table") turns out to be incomplete. A crash in
netvsc_get_next_send_section() is observed on mtu change when the device
is under load. The race I identified is: if we get to netvsc_send() after
we set net_device_ctx-&gt;nvdev link in netvsc_device_add() but before we
finish netvsc_connect_vsp()-&gt;netvsc_init_buf() send_section_map is not
allocated and we crash. Unfortunately we can't set net_device_ctx-&gt;nvdev
link after the netvsc_init_buf() call as during the negotiation we need
to receive packets and on the receive path we check for it. It would
probably be possible to split nvdev into a pair of nvdev_in and nvdev_out
links and check them accordingly in get_outbound_net_device()/
get_inbound_net_device() but this looks like an overkill.

Check that send_section_map is allocated in netvsc_send().

The hdr_offset variable is only if we deal with a TCP or UDP packet,
but as the check surrounding its usage tests for skb_is_gso()
instead, the compiler has no idea if the variable is initialized
or not at that point:

drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc_drv.c: In function ‘netvsc_start_xmit’:
drivers/net/hyperv/netvsc_drv.c:494:42: error: ‘hdr_offset’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

This adds an additional check for the transport type, which
tells the compiler that this path cannot happen. Since the
get_net_transport_info() function should always be inlined
here, I don't expect this to result in additional runtime
checks.
