Damn good catch.

The same fix should be relevant for NETIF_F_RXCSUM. You may thus as
well remove the "changed" test in __rtl8169_set_features and keep
everything there.

The commit message could notify the driver don't behave as expected since
6bbe021d405fff46b64a08dca51b06897b897a67 ("r8169: Support RX-ALL flag.")
to ease stable people's work.
