[PATCH RFC 1/7] net: Fix GRE RX to use skb_transport_header for offset

From: Tom Herbert <hidden>
Date: 2014-01-02 22:12:38
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

GRE assumes that the GRE header is at skb_network_header +
ip_hrdlen(skb). It is more general to use skb_transport_header
and this allows the possbility of inserting additional header
between IP and GRE (which is what we will done in Generic UDP
Encapsulation for GRE).
