I think this should also go to stable queues which are applicable, since
the original commit caused CLAMPMSS and XFRM pmtu regressions.

The original thread of this is:
http://marc.info/?t=134208398500001&r=1&w=2

My original revert request is at:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=134242561624266&w=2

and additional reasoning at:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=134243626627716&w=2

Thanks,
 Timo
