Actually the reverse. The set_offload() controls the tuntap TX path
(guest RX path).

When VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_XXX was not negotiated, the corresponding netdev
features needs to be disabled. When host tries to send those packets to
guest, it needs to do software segmentation.

See virtio_net_apply_guest_offloads().

There's currently no way (or not need) to prevent tuntap from receiving
GSO packets.

Thanks
