Subject: [PATCH net] sit: Set skb->protocol properly in ipip6_tunnel_xmit()

Similar to commit ae148b085876
("ip6_tunnel: Update skb->protocol to ETH_P_IPV6 in ip6_tnl_xmit()"),
sit tunnels also need to update skb->protocol; otherwise, TSO/GSO packets
might not be properly segmented, which causes the packets being dropped.
