It is intended as a small optimization. And this is in fact the piece
I am not fully confident about: after validating the gso_segs at a
trusted location (i.e. assuming the kernel is the trusted computing
base), do we need to validate it somewhere else? For example, in our
scenario, we have a tun/tap device in a net namespace, so the packet
going out will enter from the tap, get forwarded through an veth, and
then a vlan backed by a real ethernet interface. If the bit is carried
over, then at each egress of these devices, we need to enter the GSO
code, which feels pretty redundant as long as the packet does not
leave kernel space. WDYT?
