The device drivers should not use NETIF_F_ALL_TSO mask to set hw_features(or features),
but have to explicitly set offload option. Because, This would make drivers automatically
clain to support any new TSO feature an the moment of NETIF_F_ALL_TSO is expanded.

Some code style tuning. Just compile test.

You can add NETIF_F_HIGHDMA and NETIF_F_NO_CSUM to
LOOPBACK_USER_FEATURES in one go. NETIF_F_RXCSUM could match
NETIF_F_NO_CSUM state (this needs ndo_fix_features callback), but this
won't have much real functional impact.

Do you mean that defining LOOPBACK_USER_FEATURES as:
#define LOOPBACK_USER_FEATURES (NETIF_F_TSO | NETIF_F_TSO_ECN | \
                               NETIF_F_TSO6 | NETIF_F_UFO | NETIF_F_HIGHDMA | NETIF_F_NO_CSUM)

Is it necessary to add NETIF_F_NO_CSUM to hw_features?
After that, user can change TX hw csum offload(NETIF_F_NO_CSUM is disabled). But, this is not surportted before.

But loopback is special.  It can support anything the kernel stack can emit.

So for loopback, using NETIF_F_ALL_TSO is in fact appropriate.
