There is no need to check for NETIF_HW_CSUM. If the code reach
calculating checksum it means that correct checksum flags are set,
because kernel is checking that when setting ip->summed.
Instead of netdev feature flag use Tx ring flag to check if the hardware
can use special descriptor for checksum calculating.
