Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] do not disable sg when packet requires no checksum

This two-part patchset replaces an earlier net-only patch that added an explicit check for the AoE protocol to harmonize_features in net/core/dev.c.

Following the suggestions of Ben Hutchings, this patchset makes the decision in the network layer protocol agnostic instead of using ETH_P_AOE as a special case. It relies on fresh skbs being CHECKSUM_NONE but makes that explicit with an assertion.
