Subject: [PATCH 3/8] xfrmi: drop ignore_df check before updating pmtu

From: Sabrina Dubroca <sd@...asysnail.net>

xfrm interfaces currently test for !skb->ignore_df when deciding
whether to update the pmtu on the skb's dst. Because of this, no pmtu
exception is created when we do something like:

    ping -s 1438 <dest>

By dropping this check, the pmtu exception will be created and the
next ping attempt will work.

Fixes: f203b76d7809 ("xfrm: Add virtual xfrm interfaces")
