Hello,

as reverting this patch fixes this rather annoying problem: is it
dangerous to revert it as a workaround until the root cause is found?

Unfortunately no, this patch fixes a serious issue.

We need to find the root cause of your problem instead of trying to work
around it.

I only wanted to use it as local workaround here.


I looked a bit at at code. I'm not familiar with the network code, though :-).

When exactly should the gso handling with esp tunnel mode happen?

esp_output_done() calls xfrm_output_resume() and no gso handling is done. 
Would be to late anyway.
esp_output() does not handle gso.
xfrm4_mode_tunnel_output() does not do any gso handling as far as I can see.

xfrm_output() (from net/xfrm/xfrm_output) does but is it called with esp 
tunnel mode?
