ipv4: fix tunneled VM traffic over hw VXLAN/GRE GSO NIC
VM to VM GSO traffic is broken if it goes through VXLAN or GRE tunnel and the physical NIC on the host supports hardware VXLAN/GRE GSO offload (e.g. bnx2x and next-gen mlx4). Two issues - (VXLAN) VM traffic has SKB_GSO_DODGY and SKB_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL with SKB_GSO_TCP/UDP set depending on the inner protocol. GSO header integrity check fails in udp4_ufo_fragment if inner protocol is TCP. Also gso_segs is calculated incorrectly using skb->len that includes tunnel header. Fix: robust check should only be applied to the inner packet. (VXLAN & GRE) Once GSO header integrity check passes, NULL segs is returned and the original skb is sent to hardware. However the tunnel header is already pulled. Fix: tunnel header needs to be restored so that hardware can perform GSO properly on the original packet.
