I later isolated the regression to tx offloading, which allows one to
reproduce the problem on the fly (enable: b0rken internets, disable: all
fine). So unless you have tx offloading enabled then whatever you are
seeing has likely nothing to do with *this* problem.

Francois posted a patch to -netdev which I am running as we speak, and the
problem seems fixed for me; tx offloading (in adition to rx/gro) works
again, with no side effects. Please help test!
