[TCP]: Reset gso_segs if packet is dodgy

I wasn't paranoid enough in verifying GSO information.  A bogus gso_segs
could upset drivers as much as a bogus header would.  Let's reset it in
the per-protocol gso_segment functions.

I didn't verify gso_size because that can be verified by the source of
the dodgy packets.

Applied, thanks Herbert.
