Subject: [PATCH net 2/4] ip_gre: check packet length and mtu correctly in erspan_xmit

As a ARPHRD_ETHER device, skb->len in erspan_xmit is the length
of the whole ether packet. So before checking if a packet size
exceeds the mtu, skb->len should subtract dev->hard_header_len.

Otherwise, all packets with max size according to mtu would be
trimmed to be truncated packet.

Fixes: 84e54fe0a5ea ("gre: introduce native tunnel support for ERSPAN")
