Oh and it also happens with TCP. This is when TSO is not used, but
the packet goes into a DSA switch and you transmit
a maximum sized TCP packet. The DSA tagging code will add
some bytes of tag to the frame making it exceed ETH_FRAME_LEN,
and this will crash the HW checksumming engine.

This was how I found the original bugs in the driver...
