Subject: [003/140] gro: Fix bogus gso_size on the first fraglist entry

2.6.33-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------


From: Herbert Xu <herbert@...dor.apana.org.au>

[ Upstream commit 622e0ca1cd4d459f5af4f2c65f4dc0dd823cb4c3 ]

When GRO produces fraglist entries, and the resulting skb hits
an interface that is incapable of TSO but capable of FRAGLIST,
we end up producing a bogus packet with gso_size non-zero.

This was reported in the field with older versions of KVM that
did not set the TSO bits on tuntap.

This patch fixes that.
