It isn't a checksum offload though, it is a segmentation offload for a
tunnel that has an outer checksum.  I was hoping to avoid using the
word checksum as that might make it confusing as it is a segmentation
offload, not a checksum offload.

Right.  As it is I think we might be coming up on the 32 character
limit for the strings.  Replacing csum with checksum would probably
push us over.
