Subject: [PATCH net v2] gso: do not skip outer ip header in case of ipip and net_failover

We encounter a tcp drop issue in our cloud environment. Packet GROed in
host forwards to a VM virtio_net nic with net_failover enabled. VM acts
as a IPVS LB with ipip encapsulation. The full path like:
host gro -> vm virtio_net rx -> net_failover rx -> ipvs fullnat
 -> ipip encap -> net_failover tx -> virtio_net tx

When net_failover transmits a ipip pkt (gso_type = 0x0103), there is no gso
did because it supports TSO and GSO_IPXIP4. But network_header points to
inner ip header.

Call Trace:
 tcp4_gso_segment        ------> return NULL
 inet_gso_segment        ------> inner iph, network_header points to
 ipip_gso_segment
 inet_gso_segment        ------> outer iph
 skb_mac_gso_segment

Afterwards virtio_net transmits the pkt, only inner ip header is modified.
And the outer one just keeps unchanged. The pkt will be dropped in remote
host. So we need to reset network header in this case.

Call Trace:
 inet_gso_segment        ------> inner iph, outer iph is skipped
 skb_mac_gso_segment
 __skb_gso_segment
 validate_xmit_skb
 validate_xmit_skb_list
 sch_direct_xmit
 __qdisc_run
 __dev_queue_xmit        ------> virtio_net

 __dev_queue_xmit        ------> net_failover

 ip_forward
 ip_rcv
 __netif_receive_skb_one_core
 netif_receive_skb_internal

This patch also includes ipv6_gso_segment(), considering SIT, etc.
