ip_gre: add csum offload support for gre header
This patch is to add csum offload support for gre header: On the TX path in gre_build_header(), when CHECKSUM_PARTIAL's set for inner proto, it will calculate the csum for outer proto, and inner csum will be offloaded later. Otherwise, CHECKSUM_PARTIAL and csum_start/offset will be set for outer proto, and the outer csum will be offloaded later. On the GSO path in gre_gso_segment(), when CHECKSUM_PARTIAL is not set for inner proto and the hardware supports csum offload, CHECKSUM_PARTIAL and csum_start/offset will be set for outer proto, and outer csum will be offloaded later. Otherwise, it will do csum for outer proto by calling gso_make_checksum(). Note that SCTP has to do the csum by itself for non GSO path in sctp_packet_pack(), as gre_build_header() can't handle the csum with CHECKSUM_PARTIAL set for SCTP CRC csum offload. v1->v2: - remove the SCTP part, as GRE dev doesn't support SCTP CRC CSUM and it will always do checksum for SCTP in sctp_packet_pack() when it's not a GSO packet.
