The mss variable tracks the last max segment size sent to the TSO engine. We do not update the hardware as long as we receive skb:s with the same value in gso_size. During a network device down/up cycle (mapped to stmmac_release() and stmmac_open() callbacks) we issue a reset to the hardware and it forgets the setting for mss. However we did not zero out our mss variable so the next transmission of a gso packet happens with an undefined hardware setting. This triggers a hang in the TSO engine and eventuelly the netdev watchdog will bark.
