ip_gre: test csum_start instead of transport header

[ Upstream commit 8d21e996 ]

GRE with TUNNEL_CSUM will apply local checksum offload on
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL packets.

ipgre_xmit must validate csum_start after an optional skb_pull,
else lco_csum may trigger an overflow. The original check was

	if (csum && skb_checksum_start(skb) < skb->data)
		return -EINVAL;

This had false positives when skb_checksum_start is undefined:
when ip_summed is not CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. A discussed refinement
was straightforward

	if (csum && skb->ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL &&
	    skb_checksum_start(skb) < skb->data)
		return -EINVAL;

But was eventually revised more thoroughly:
- restrict the check to the only branch where needed, in an
  uncommon GRE path that uses header_ops and calls skb_pull.
- test skb_transport_header, which is set along with csum_start
  in skb_partial_csum_set in the normal header_ops datapath.

Turns out skbs can arrive in this branch without the transport
header set, e.g., through BPF redirection.

Revise the check back to check csum_start directly, and only if
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. Do leave the check in the updated location.
Check field regardless of whether TUNNEL_CSUM is configured.
