I'm sorry for splitting the feedback in multiple replies.

I think the concern I expressed on v1:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/a7b90a3a-79ed-42a4-a782-17cde1b9a2d6@redhat.com/ (local)

is still not addressed here. What I fear is:

- TCP cooks a plain GSO packet just below the 64K limit.
- Such packet goes trough UDP (or gre) encapsulation, the skb->len size
(including outer network header) grows above the 64K limit.
- the above check is satisfied, but no jumbo hop option is present.

I think you could use the `ipv6_has_hopopt_jumbo()` helper to be on the
safe side.
