This flag requests that network devices pass all
received frames up the stack, even ones with errors
such as invalid FCS (frame check sum). This will
allow sniffers to see bad packets and perhaps
give the user some idea how to fix the problem.Signed-off-by: Ben Greear

When set on hardware that supports the feature,
this causes the Ethernet FCS to be appended
to the end of the skb.Useful for sniffing packets.

Only distinct use is checking if NETIF_F_NOCACHE_COPY should be
enabled by default. The check heuristics is altered a bit here,
so it hits other people than before. The default shouldn't be
trusted for performance-critical cases anyway.For all other uses NETIF_F_NO_CSUM is equivalent to NETIF_F_HW_CSUM.

Define feature values by bit position instead of direct 2**i values
and force the values to be of type netdev_features_t.Cleaned and extended from patch by Mahesh Bandewar :
+ added netdev_features_t casts
+ included bits under NETIF_F_GSO_MASK
+ moved feature #defines out of struct net_device definitionSigned-off-by: Michał Mirosław

Move features definitions to separate header so that linux/skbuff.h won't
need to include linux/netdevice.h after netdev_features_t is introduced.Signed-off-by: Michał Mirosław
