netvsc: reduce maximum GSO size

[ Upstream commit a50af86dd49ee1851d1ccf06dd0019c05b95e297 ]

Hyper-V (and Azure) support using NVGRE which requires some extra space
for encapsulation headers. Because of this the largest allowed TSO
packet is reduced.

For older releases, hard code a fixed reduced value.  For next release,
there is a better solution which uses result of host offload
negotiation.
