It's actually a bug in the bridging code :)

[BRIDGE]: Disable SG/GSO if TX checksum is off

When the bridge recomputes features, it does not maintain the
constraint that SG/GSO must be off if TX checksum is off.
This patch adds that constraint.

On a completely unrelated note, I've also added TSO6 and TSO_ECN
feature bits if GSO is enabled on the underlying device through
the new NETIF_F_GSO_SOFTWARE macro.
