From: John W. Linville <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
At least some versions of the via-velocity hardware only support
checksumming IPv4 frames in hardware. However, the driver is currently
setting the NETIF_F_HW_CSUM flag, which indicates support for more than
just IPv4. This results in errors when trying to use IPv6 over
via-velocity hardware.

This could be applied to the 'upstream-fixes' branch of netdev-2.6.
