NETIF_F_SG only; NETIF_F_FRAGLIST means you can handle skbs chained
through the frag_list pointer.

NETIF_F_IP_CSUM means you have hardware checksum generation for TCP/IPv4
and UDP/IPv4 only (XAE_FEATURE_FULL_TX_CSUM).

NETIF_F_HW_CSUM means you have generic TCP-style checksum generation
using the csum_start and csum_offset fields of the skb
(XAE_FEATURE_PARTIAL_TX_CSUM). By the way, you're actually testing
XAE_FEATURE_PARTIAL_RX_CSUM in axienet_start_xmit()...

There is no need to differentiate these in the device features. For TX
the stack needs to know whether to use a software fallback before
passing the skb to you, but on RX it looks at the ip_summed field of
each skb you pass up.
