From: Anton Ivanov <anton.iva...@cambridgegreys.com>
Some of the frames marked as GSO which arrive at
virtio_net_hdr_from_skb() have no GSO_TYPE, no
fragments (data_len = 0) and length significantly shorter
than the MTU (752 in my experiments).
This is observed on raw sockets reading off vEth interfaces
in all 4.x and 5.x kernels I tested.
These frames are reported as invalid while they are in fact
gso-less frames.
This patch marks the vnet header as no-GSO for them instead
of reporting it as invalid.
