The inner_ipproto saves the inner IP protocol of the plain text packet. This allows vendor's IPsec feature making offload decision at skb's features_check and configuring hardware at ndo_start_xmit. For example, ConnectX6-DX IPsec device needs the plaintext's IP protocol to support partial checksum offload on VXLAN/GENEVE packet over IPsec transport mode tunnel.
