bpf_skb_proto_6_to_4 will upgrade the MSS and it can be > the payload
length. After then tcp_gso_segment checks for the payload length if it
is <= MSS. The condition is causing the packet to be dropped.

tcp_gso_segment():
        [...]
        mss = skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size;
        if (unlikely(skb->len <= mss))
                goto out;
        [...]

Allow to upgrade/downgrade MSS only when BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_FIXED_GSO is
not set.
