From: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 95099c569a9fdbe186a27447dfa8a5a0562d4b7f ]
There has been a number of reports that using SG/TSO on different chip
versions results in tx timeouts. However for a lot of people SG/TSO
works fine. Therefore disable both features by default, but allow users
to enable them. Use at own risk!
Fixes: 93681cd7d94f ("r8169: enable HW csum and TSO")
