   No, I meant that the code looks strange.

   I think this statement doesn't make sense, unless the TOE itself doesn't check the protocol ID in
the Ethernet frame (which it should). It also seems (after reading <linux/skbuff.h>) that enabling
IPv4 header checksum calculation is pointless -- you don't have the means to report it anyway...
You may want to set skb-csum_level though (not sure if that's not already 0).

   We do it for EtherAVB, why not do it for GbEther?
