This moves part of Eric Dumazets skb_gso_seglen helper from tbf sched to
skbuff core so it may be reused by upcoming ip forwarding path patch.

This patch adds a function to set up the partial checksum offset for IP
packets (and optionally re-calculate the pseudo-header checksum) into the
core network code.
The implementation was previously private and duplicated between xen-netback
and xen-netfront, however it is not xen-specific and is potentially useful
to any network driver.

We should const-ify comparisons on skb_queue_* inline helper
functions as their parameters are const as well, so lets not
drop that.

====================
[GIT net-next] Open vSwitch

Open vSwitch changes for net-next/3.14. Highlights are:
 * Performance improvements in the mechanism to get packets to userspace
   using memory mapped netlink and skb zero copy where appropriate.
 * Per-cpu flow stats in situations where flows are likely to be shared
   across CPUs. Standard flow stats are used in other situations to save
   memory and allocation time.
 * A handful of code cleanups and rationalization.

We've seen so many instances of people invoking skb_tx_timestamp()
after the device already has been given the packet, that it's worth
being a little bit more verbose and explicit in this comment.

It can be a bit confusing when looking for checksumming flags that
the actual comment for this resides elsewhere further below in the
header file.

Thus, bring the documentation where we define these flags, and
slightly improve the doc text to make it a bit more clear/readable.

Also, whitespace-align values of the define while at it.

ipgre_header_parse() needs to parse the tunnel's ip header and it
uses mac_header to locate the iphdr. This got broken when gre tunneling
was refactored as mac_header is no longer updated to point to iphdr.
Introduce skb_pop_mac_header() helper to do the mac_header assignment
and use it in ipgre_rcv() to fix msg_name parsing.
