A packet with skb_inner_network_header(skb) == skb_network_header(skb)
and ETH_P_MPLS_UC will prevent mpls_gso_segment from pulling any headers
from the packet. Subsequently, the call to skb_mac_gso_segment will
again call mpls_gso_segment with the same packet leading to an infinite
loop.

Good cathc. Besides length zero, this can be more strict: a label is
4B, so mpls_hlen needs to be >= 4B.

Perhaps even aligned to 4B, too, but not if there may be other encap on top.

Unfortunately there is no struct or type definition that we can use a
sizeof instead of open coding the raw constant.
