[RFC PATCH 0/2] net: gro: avoid touching transport header

[Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>]

This series is basically a pre-req for GRO support for double UDP
encapsulation:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/cover.1764056123.git.pabeni@redhat.com/

that otherwise would requiring explicitly disabling gro on the outer
geneve device.

I *think* it should also help plain TCP GRO performances, even if don't
have a very high speed, full zero-copy, big TCP testbed handy to
actually prove it - see patch 1 for the gory details.

  net: gro: avoid relaying on skb->transport_header at receive time
  net: gro: set the transport header later
