[ Upstream commit 8c6216d7f118a128678270824b6a1286a63863ca ]

This reverts commit 412ed94744d16806fbec3bd250fd94e71cde5a1f.

The commit is wrong as tiph points to the outer IPv4 header which is
installed at ipgre_header() and not the inner one which is protocol dependant.

This commit broke succesfully opennhrp which use PF_PACKET socket with
ETH_P_NHRP protocol. Additionally ssl_addr is set to the link-layer
IPv4 address. This address is written by ipgre_header() to the skb
earlier, and this is the IPv4 header tiph should point to - regardless
of the inner protocol payload.

<title>IP_GRE: Fix kernel panic in IP_GRE with GRE csum.</title>

<content type='text'>
Due to IP_GRE GSO support, GRE can recieve non linear skb which
results in panic in case of GRE_CSUM.  Following patch fixes it by
using correct csum API.

Bug introduced in commit 6b78f16e4bdde3936b (gre: add GSO support)

ipgre_tunnel_xmit() incorrectly sets transport header to inner payload
instead of GRE header. It seems copy-and-pasted from ipip.c.
So set transport header to gre header.
(In ipip case the transport header is the inner ip header, so that's
correct.)

Found by inspection. In practice the incorrect transport header
doesn't matter because the skb usually is sent to another net_device
or socket, so the transport header isn't referenced.

Once skb_realloc_headroom() is called, tiph might point to freed memory.

Cache tiph-&gt;ttl value before the reallocation, to avoid unexpected
behavior.

ipgre_tunnel_xmit() parses network header as IP unconditionally.
But transmitting packets are not always IP packet. For example such packet
can be sent by packet socket with sockaddr_ll.sll_protocol set.
So make the function check if skb-&gt;protocol is IP.

Settings that merely control a single network device are allowed.
Either the network device is a logical network device where
