From: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeb...@intel.com>
The driver still was not offloading TSO on GRE tunnels because
it forgot to set the GSO_GRE flag, causing lots of retransmits.
This fixes generic GRE traffic (like a tunnel added like below)
whereas before it would get 1Gb/s or less, now on a 10G adapter
it gets 8.7Gb/s.
