In several gso_segment functions there are checks of gso_type against
a seemingly arbitrary list of SKB_GSO_* flags. This seems like an
attempt to identify unsupported GSO types, but since the stack is
the one that set these GSO types in the first place this seems
unnecessary to do. If a combination isn't valid in the first
place that stack should not allow setting it.

This is a code simplication especially for add new GSO types.

This is a nice clean-up since tunnels have essentially made things like trying to filter TSOV4 or TSOV6 pointless for the network layer.
