CONFIG_BNX2X is not enabled in any ChromeOS branches. The problem has been fixed with upstream commit 8914a595110a ("bnx2x: disable GSO where gso_size is too big for hardware"). The fix is not yet available in stable releases. We will pull it in from there if/when available.

I'll put this into M-68 but it doesn't really matter for a Security_Impact-None.
