Jianbo Liu f93a187c25 xfrm: Fix inner mode lookup in tunnel mode GSO segmentation 
[ Upstream commit 3d5221af9c ]

Commit 61fafbee6c ("xfrm: Determine inner GSO type from packet inner
protocol") attempted to fix GSO segmentation by reading the inner
protocol from XFRM_MODE_SKB_CB(skb)->protocol. This was incorrect
because the field holds the inner L4 protocol (TCP/UDP) instead of the
required tunnel protocol. Also, the memory location (shared by
XFRM_SKB_CB(skb) which could be overwritten by xfrm_replay_overflow())
is prone to corruption. This combination caused the kernel to select
the wrong inner mode and get the wrong address family.

The correct value is in xfrm_offload(skb)->proto, which is set from
the outer tunnel header's protocol field by esp[4|6]_gso_encap(). It
is initialized by xfrm[4|6]_tunnel_encap_add() to either IPPROTO_IPIP
or IPPROTO_IPV6, using xfrm_af2proto() and correctly reflects the
inner packet's address family.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
