ldmvsw: disable tso and gso for bridge operations
The ldmvsw driver is specifically for supporting the ldom virtual networking by running in the primary ldom and using the LDC to connect the remaining ldoms to the outside world via a bridge. With TSO and GSO supported while connected the bridge, things tend to misbehave as seen in our case by delayed packets, enough to begin triggering retransmits and affecting overall throughput. By turning off advertised support for TSO and GSO we restore stable traffic flow through the bridge. Orabug: 23293104 Signed-off-by: Shannon Nelson <shannon.nelson@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
