Virtio pmd driver does not support TSO for now.

Previously, it's implemented in the v3 of the patchset, which you are 
referring to, but abandoned in the v4.
v3: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.networking.dpdk.devel/27512
v8: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.networking.dpdk.devel/32743

It may be because that there's no consumers (L4 stack) for this feature. 
And if you want that, you could make that as a reference.

Thanks,
Jianfeng
