Mandatory hash functions for v4 already added in the past:
Commit 52ec00fd1474 ("net/vmxnet3: fix RSS setting on v4")

Now this commit adds it for all versions, why it was fine in the past
but it is needed now?

@Jochen, can you please help reviewing this patch?

Can you please describe why IPv4/6 TCP hash function is required for driver?
And what is the impact, I mean what is the observed behavior without
this patch, if RSS is failing without this change patch needs to be fix
patch and please describe since when RSS is failing.

The check is at an additional location. I agree, and pointed out to him offline earlier, that a check for the h/w version should be used with the additional code, too.
