Subject: [PATCH net v2] gre: set inner_protocol on xmit

Ensure that the inner_protocol is set on transmit so that GSO segmentation,
which relies on that field, works correctly.

I have observed this is not the case when OvS transmits GRE using
lwtunnel metadata (which it always does).

Fixes: 38720352412a ("gre: Use inner_proto to obtain inner header protocol")
