The patch does not apply properly. It seems you've done it on a version
that is more than 6 months old. Could you please rebase it?

My second question concerns the behavior of this flag when it is not
supported by the driver. Shouldn't we have a feature flag saying "this
driver supports CRC stripping"?

Also, I think "PKT_TX_STRIP_CRC" would be a better name.
