If the driver correctly reports negotiated offload capabilities (see my
previous comment on patch 3), there is no need for the test on
VIRTIO_NET_F_CSUM, because application is not supposed to ask for offloads
on driver that do not support them.
Same logic would apply to virtqueue_enqueue_offload() function.

In the end, we could always call this function (or move the code here).
