Subject: [net-next PATCH 1/5] udp: Record gso_segs when supporting UDP
 segmentation offload

From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@...el.com>

We need to record the number of segments that will be generated when this
frame is segmented. The expectation is that if gso_size is set then
gso_segs is set as well. Without this some drivers such as ixgbe get
confused if they attempt to offload this as they record 0 segments for the
entire packet instead of the correct value.
