From: Thomas Richter <tmricht@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> When RX/TX checksum offloading is turned on and the adapter is an OSA 3 card in layer 3 mode, the checksum offloading is only performed when both peers use different adapters. If both peers share an OSA 3 card, communication is a memory copy and checksum offloading is not performed. This patch adds a warning to inform the administrator. OSA 3 in layer 2 mode does not offer the RX/TX checksum offload feature.
