Hi Willem

Does this need to be

diff --git a/net/ipv4/udp_offload.c b/net/ipv4/udp_offload.c
index 6dd3f0a..fcd5589 100644
--- a/net/ipv4/udp_offload.c
+++ b/net/ipv4/udp_offload.c
@@ -407,7 +407,7 @@ static struct sk_buff *udp4_gro_receive(struct 
list_head *head,
  {
         struct udphdr *uh = udp_gro_udphdr(skb);

-       if (unlikely(!uh) || 
!static_branch_unlikely(&udp_encap_needed_key))
+       if (unlikely(!uh) || 
static_branch_unlikely(&udp_encap_needed_key))
                 goto flush;

         /* Don't bother verifying checksum if we're going to flush 
anyway. */

I tried setting UDP_GRO socket option and I had to make this change to
exercise the udp_gro_receive_cb code path.
