Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net: ip, ipv6: handle gso skbs in forwarding path
Marcelo Ricardo Leitner reported problems when the forwarding link
path has a lower mtu than the incoming link if the inbound interface
supports GRO.
Given:
Host <mtu1500> R1 <mtu1200> R2
Host sends tcp stream which is routed via R1 and R2. R1 performs GRO.
In this case, the kernel will fail to send ICMP fragmentation needed
messages (or pkt too big for ipv6), as gso packets currently bypass the
dst mtu checks in forward path. Instead, Linux tries to send out packets
exceeding R1-R2 link mtu.
When locking route MTU on Host (i.e., no ipv4 DF bit set), R1 does
not fragment the packets when forwarding, and again tries to send out
packets exceeding R1-R2 link mtu.
This alters the forwarding dstmtu checks to take the individual gso
segment lengths into account.
For ipv6, we send out pkt too big error for gso if the individual
segments are too big.
For ipv4, we either send icmp fragmentation needed, or, if the DF bit
is not set, perform software segmentation and let the output path
create fragments when the packet is leaving the machine.
It is not 100% correct as the error message will contain the headers of
the GRO skb instead of the original/segmented one, but it seems to
work fine in my (limited) tests.

Changes since V2:
- make this thing apply to current -net tree
- kill unused variables in ip_forward/ip6_output
Changes since V1:
suggestions from Eric Dumazet:
- skip more expensive computation for small packets in fwd path
- use netif_skb_features() feature mask and remove GSO flags
instead of using 0 feature set.
