Public bug reported:

[Impact]

The tc ebpf bpf_redirect() function cannot be used with ipv6 gre
interface.

This is fixed upstream with commit a3fa449ffcf5 ("net: handle
ARPHRD_IP6GRE in dev_is_mac_header_xmit()"), included in linux v5.14.

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=a3fa449ffcf5

It would probably be good to also backport this one: 3b707c3008ca ("net:
dev_is_mac_header_xmit() true for ARPHRD_RAWIP").

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=3b707c3008ca

[Test Case]

Create an ebpf program that redirect packets to an ipv6 gre interface
and load it with tc.

[Regression Potential]

The patches are trivial, the potential regressions are low.
