[PATCH net-next 0/4] iptunnel: scrub packet in iptunnel_pull_header

As every IP tunnel has to scrub skb on decapsulation, iptunnel_pull_header tried to do that and open coded part of skb_scrub_packet. Various tunneling protocols (VXLAN, Geneve) then called full skb_scrub_packet on their own, duplicating part of the scrubbing already done. Consolidate the code, calling skb_scrub_packet from iptunnel_pull_header. This will allow additional cleanups in VXLAN code, as the packet is scrubbed early during rx processing after this patchset and VXLAN can start filling out skb fields earlier.
