[PATCH net-next 0/3] net: enable GRO for IPIP and SIT

This patch sets populates the IPIP and SIT offload structures with
gro_receive and gro_complete functions. This enables use of GRO
for these. Also, fixed a problem in IPv6 where we were not properly
initializing flush_id.

Peformance results are below. Note that these tests were done on bnx2x
which doesn't provide RX checksum offload of IPIP or SIT (i.e. does
not give CHEKCSUM_COMPLETE). Also, we don't get 4-tuple hash for RSS
only 2-tuple in this case so all the packets between two hosts are
winding up on the same queue. Net result is the interrupting CPU is
the bottleneck in GRO (checksumming every packet there).

Testing:

netperf TCP_STREAM between two hosts using bnx2x.

SIT
  1 connection
    6.68% CPU utilization
    5653.36 Mbps
  20 connections
    18.88% CPU utilization

* After fix

IPIP

    5.73% CPU utilization
    9279.53 Mbps
  20 connections
    7.14% CPU utilization

  ipv6: Clear flush_id to make GRO work
  ipip: Add gro callbacks to ipip offload
  sit: Add gro callbacks to sit_offload
