Okay, I'll drop "Disable UFO through virtio" from 3.13-stable.

But what about this subsequent UFO patch which refers to UFO being 'now
disabled'?  Drop this too, or leave it in?:

    drivers/net, ipv6: Select IPv6 fragment idents for virtio UFO packets
    
    [ Upstream commit 5188cd44c55db3e92cd9e77a40b5baa7ed4340f7 ]
    
    UFO is now disabled on all drivers that work with virtio net headers,
    but userland may try to send UFO/IPv6 packets anyway.  Instead of
    sending with ID=0, we should select identifiers on their behalf (as we
    used to).

Thanks very much, Ben!
