Subject: [PATCHv2 net-next] ip_gre: remove CRC flag from dev features in gre_gso_segment

This patch is to let it always do CRC checksum in sctp_gso_segment()
by removing CRC flag from the dev features in gre_gso_segment() for
SCTP over GRE, just as it does in Commit 527beb8ef9c0 ("udp: support
sctp over udp in skb_udp_tunnel_segment") for SCTP over UDP.

It could set csum/csum_start in GSO CB properly in sctp_gso_segment()
after that commit, so it would do checksum with gso_make_checksum()
in gre_gso_segment(), and Commit 622e32b7d4a6 ("net: gre: recompute
gre csum for sctp over gre tunnels") can be reverted now.

Note that the current HWs like igb NIC can only handle the SCTP CRC
when it's in the outer packet, not in the inner packet like in this
case, so here it removes CRC flag from the dev features even when
need_csum is false.

v1->v2:
  - improve the changelog.
  - fix "rev xmas tree" in varibles declaration.
