4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Xin Long <[email protected]> [ Upstream commit ffc2b6ee417435605ee8bb1eb4c8f02e9ff4b4a5 ] It's safe to remove the setting of dev's needed_headroom and mtu in __gre_tunnel_init, as discussed in [1], ip_tunnel_newlink can do it properly. Now Eric noticed that it could cover the mtu value set in do_setlink when creating a ip_gre dev. It makes IFLA_MTU param not take effect. So this patch is to remove them to make IFLA_MTU work, as in other ipv4 tunnels. [1]: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/823504/ Fixes: c54419321455 ("GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.")
