Commit b10effb92e27 ("e1000e: fix buffer overrun while the I219 is processing DMA transactions") imposes roughly 30% performance penalty. The commit log states that "Disabling TSO eliminates performance loss for TCP traffic without a noticeable impact on CPU performance", so let's disable TSO by default to regain the loss.
