xfrm: Fix double ESP trailer insertion in IPsec crypto offload.

Browse source

During IPsec performance testing, we see bad ICMP checksum. The error packet
has duplicated ESP trailer due to double validate_xmit_xfrm calls. The first call
is from ip_output, but the packet cannot be sent because
netif_xmit_frozen_or_stopped is true and the packet gets dev_requeue_skb. The second
call is from NET_TX softirq. However after the first call, the packet already
has the ESP trailer.

Fix by marking the skb with XFRM_XMIT bit after the packet is handled by
validate_xmit_xfrm to avoid duplicate ESP trailer insertion.
