Since commit 8a29111c7 ("net: gro: allow to build full sized skb")
gro may build buffers with a frag_list. This can hurt forwarding
because most NICs can't offload such packets, they need to be
segmented in software. This patch splits buffers with a frag_list
at the frag_list pointer into buffers that can be TSO offloaded.
