Selected device feature bits can be propagated to VLAN devices, so we
can make use of TX checksum offload and TSO on VLAN-tagged packets.
However, if the physical device does not do VLAN tag insertion or
generic checksum offload then the test for TX checksum offload in
dev_queue_xmit() will see a protocol of htons(ETH_P_8021Q) and yield
false.

This splits the checksum offload test into two functions:

- can_checksum_protocol() tests a given protocol against a feature bitmask

- dev_can_checksum() first tests the skb protocol against the device
  features; if that fails and the protocol is htons(ETH_P_8021Q) then
  it tests the encapsulated protocol against the effective device
  features for VLANs
