Problem:
When using the TSO + VXLAN feature in i40e, the outer UDP length fields in
the multiple UDP segments which are TSOed by the i40e will have a
wrong value.
Fix this problem by adding the tunnel type field in the i40e descriptor
which was missed before.

Above flag bits are added so that i40e driver can tell tunnel type of
this packet (udp or gre or ipip), just interested to know how about just
do a simple analysis like below without introducing these flags?
if outer_ether.proto == ipv4
l4_proto = ipv4_hdr->next_proto;
else outer_ether.proto == ipv6
l4_proto = ipv6_hdr->next_proto;
switch (l4_proto)
case ipv4:
case ipv6:
tunnel_type = ipip;
break;
case udp:
tunnel_type = udp;
break;
case gre:
tunnel_type = gre;
break;
default:
error;
Thanks,
