Subject: [PATCH 5.4 004/104] ipv6: sr: remove SKB_GSO_IPXIP6 on End.D* actions

From: Yuki Taguchi <tagyounit@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 62ebaeaedee7591c257543d040677a60e35c7aec ]

After LRO/GRO is applied, SRv6 encapsulated packets have
SKB_GSO_IPXIP6 feature flag, and this flag must be removed right after
decapulation procedure.

Currently, SKB_GSO_IPXIP6 flag is not removed on End.D* actions, which
creates inconsistent packet state, that is, a normal TCP/IP packets
have the SKB_GSO_IPXIP6 flag. This behavior can cause unexpected
fallback to GSO on routing to netdevices that do not support
SKB_GSO_IPXIP6. For example, on inter-VRF forwarding, decapsulated
packets separated into small packets by GSO because VRF devices do not
support TSO for packets with SKB_GSO_IPXIP6 flag, and this degrades
forwarding performance.

This patch removes encapsulation related GSO flags from the skb right
after the End.D* action is applied.
