Ipgre is not the only one which is affected in this case. Essentially
all the affected xxx_xmit() calls pskb_inet_may_pull() that gets a
negative value when using skb_network_offset(). The result in this
case should be zero.

The commit 3914d88f7608 ("xsk: Respect device's headroom and tailroom
on generic xmit path") introduces skb_reserve() which makes 'skb->data
+= len;' and then result in the inconsistency in skb_network_offset().

The plan is to reset the header after skb_reserve:
diff --git a/net/xdp/xsk.c b/net/xdp/xsk.c

As syzbot said, I cannot have a reproducer to test/verify it.
