Subject: [PATCH 4.14 045/242] vxlan: Copy needed_tailroom from lowerdev

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@...fation.org>

[ Upstream commit a5e74021e84bb5eadf760aaf2c583304f02269be ]

While vxlan doesn't need any extra tailroom, the lowerdev might need it. In
that case, copy it over to reduce the chance for additional (re)allocations
in the transmit path.
