====================
Guard against gso_segs overflows

This series is a follow-up on the discussion:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/CAD0BsJWzSr2zduf5v3mVC4zd=Lj6ZAoC+V42-VBdg42aDY8XXw@mail.gmail.com/T/#m1e22fca273c36cc8844e516505d3251cc1418fea

skb_segment is patched to avoid possible overflows in partial GSO. The
primary possible source of too many GSO segments is also addressed:
virtio-net clamps gso_size to >=8 in TCP, as suggested by Eric.
