I believe that the treatment of skb->mac_len is different from what
you are proposing in the OVS patch. I think this is because there is a
call to skb_reset_mac_len() in __skb_gso_segment() but it is somewhat
confusing. The GSO code is moving away from being able to reset all
header pointers and reparse the packet (obviously that's not possible
in the case of MPLS) so maybe we can just remove that call.

I assume that this is supposed to refer to MPLS and not GRE.
