This can be used to selectively disable feature flags for checksum offload, scatter/gather or GSO by changing vif->netdev_features. Removing features from vif->netdev_features does not affect the netdev features themselves, but instead fixes up skbs in the tx path so that the offloads are not needed in the driver. Aside from making it easier to deal with vif type based hardware limitations, this also makes it possible to optimize performance on hardware without native GSO support by declaring GSO support in hw->netdev_features and removing it from vif->netdev_features. This allows mac80211 to handle GSO segmentation after the sta lookup, but before itxq enqueue, thus reducing the number of unnecessary sta lookups, as well as some other per-packet processing.
