I did a fix for this last week, but forgot to submit it.
We can fix this in inet_gro_receive(), as no GRO handler
can really handle fragmented packets.

I'll plan to fix it with this patch:

Subject: [PATCH RFC] ipv4: Don't pass IP fragments to upper layer GRO handlers.

Upper layer GRO handlers can not handle IP fragments, so
exit GRO processing in this case. This also fixes ESP GRO
because the packet must be reassembled before we can
decapsulate, otherwise we get authentication failures.

This also aligns IPv4 to IPv6 where packets with fragmentation
headers are not passed to upper layer GRO handlers.
