3fd434d846 qeth: allow dynamic change of rx checksumming
Technically there is no need to set the card offline to change
RX checksumming. Get rid of this stupid limitation.

c3b4a740db qeth: rework TSO functions
The maximum TSO size OSA can handle is 15 * PAGE_SIZE. This
patch reduces gso_max_size to this value and adds some sanity
checks and statistics to the TSO implementation.
Since only layer 3 is able to do TSO move all TSO related functions
to the qeth_l3 module.

Replace complex macro for s390dbf calls by equivalent function. This reduces
module size about 10% without visible performance impact.
