Subject: [PATCH net-next] gre_offload: simplify GRE header length calculation in gre_gso_segment()

Simplify the GRE header length calculation in gre_gso_segment().
Switch to an approach that is simpler, faster, and more general. The
new approach will continue to be correct even if we add support for
the optional variable-length routing info that may be present in a GRE
header.
