Applied, thanks Patrick.

And based upon your discovery wrt. MAX_HEADER I'm also
applying the following.

commit 93e3a20d6c67a09b867431e7d5b3e7bc97154fab

    [NET]: Fix MAX_HEADER setting.
    
    MAX_HEADER is either set to LL_MAX_HEADER or LL_MAX_HEADER + 48, and
    this is controlled by a set of CONFIG_* ifdef tests.
    
    It is trying to use LL_MAX_HEADER + 48 when any of the tunnels are
    enabled which set hard_header_len like this:
    
    dev->hard_header_len = LL_MAX_HEADER + sizeof(struct xxx);
    
    The correct set of tunnel drivers which do this are:
    
    ipip
    ip_gre
    ip6_tunnel
    sit
    
    so make the ifdef test match.
    
    Noticed by Patrick McHardy.
