This worked after I changed both "dev"s to "netdev".  And the boot
succedded.  I will apply this patchg to linux-next today and hopefully
Dave can apply it to the net tree.  I have added a copy fo the patch I
used below.

Commit b9367bf3ee6d ("net: ibmveth: convert to hw_features") accidentally
removed call to ibmveth_set_csum_offload() in ibmveth_probe(). Put the
call back where it was, but with additional error checking provided
by ibmveth_set_features().
