rndis_filter_device_add() is called both from netvsc_probe() when we
initially create the device and from set channels/mtu/ringparam
routines where we basically remove the device and add it back.
hw_features is reset in rndis_filter_device_add() and filled with
host data. However, we lose all additional flags which are set outside
of the driver, e.g. register_netdevice() adds NETIF_F_SOFT_FEATURES and
many others.
Unfortunately, calls to rndis_{query_hwcaps(), _set_offload_params()}
calls cannot be avoided on every RNDIS reset: host expects us to set
required features explicitly. Moreover, in theory hardware capabilities
can change and we need to reflect the change in hw_features.
Reset net->hw_features bits according to host data in
rndis_netdev_set_hwcaps(), clear corresponding feature bits
from net->features in case some features went missing (will never happen
in real life I guess but let's be consistent).

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
