[PATCH net] netdevice: Prefer NETIF_F_HW_CSUM when intersecting features

[Vladislav Yasevich]

While hardware device use either NETIF_F_(IP|IPV6)_CSUM or
NETIF_F_HW_CSUM, all of the software devices use HW_CSUM.
This results in an interesting situation when the software
device is configured on top of hw device using (IP|IPV6)_CSUM.
In this situation, the user can't turn off checksum offloading
features on the software device.

This patch resolves that by prefering the NETIF_F_HW_CSUM setting
when computing a feature intersect.
