Hi, 
        This patch enables TSO over IPv6. Currently Linux network stacks
        restricts TSO over IPv6 by clearing of the NETIF_F_TSO bit from
        "dev->features". This patch will remove this restriction.

        This patch will introduce a new flag NETIF_F_TSO6 which will be used 
        to check whether device supports TSO over IPv6. If device support TSO
        over IPv6 then we don't clear of NETIF_F_TSO and which will make the 
        TCP layer to create TSO packets. Any device supporting TSO over IPv6 
        will set NETIF_F_TSO6 flag in "dev->features" along with NETIF_F_TSO.

        In case when user disables TSO using ethtool, NETIF_F_TSO will get
        cleared from "dev->features". So even if we have NETIF_F_TSO6 we don't
        get TSO packets created by TCP layer. 

        SKB_GSO_TCPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_TCP to make it generic GSO packet.
        SKB_GSO_UDPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_UDP as UFO is not a IPv4 feature.
        UFO is supported over IPv6 also

        The following table shows there is significant improvement in
        throughput with normal frames and CPU usage for both normal and jumbo.

        --------------------------------------------------
        |          |     1500        |      9600         |
        |          ------------------|-------------------|
        |          | thru     CPU    |  thru     CPU     |
        --------------------------------------------------
        | TSO OFF  | 2.00   5.5% id  |  5.66   20.0% id   |
        --------------------------------------------------
        | TSO ON   | 2.63   78.0 id  |  5.67   39.0% id  |
        --------------------------------------------------

Please review the patch.
