Here is v2 of the patches that prevent an infinite loop for gso packets with a protocol from virtio net hdr that doesn't match the protocol in the packet. Note that packets coming from a device without header_ops->parse_protocol being implemented will not be caught by the check in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb, but the infinite loop will still be prevented by the check in the gso layer.
