Large Receive Offload (LRO) destroys packet headers that should be
preserved when forwarding.  Currently it also triggers a BUG() or WARN()
in skb_gso_segment().  We should disable it wherever forwarding is
enabled, and discard LRO skbs with a warning if it is turned back on.

I don't think forwarding GSO packets is bad per se.  However,
doing LRO on forwarded traffic is broken because it breaks the
end-to-end connection.  So I agree that we should detect this
but preferrably not based on the GSO flag as LRO isn't the only
source of GSO traffic and the rest of them can be forwarded just
fine.

Thanks,
