[PATCH net-next] pktgen: Fix position of ip and udp header

[PATCH net-next] pktgen: Fix position of ip and udp header

[Thomas Graf]

skb_set_network_header() expects an offset based on the data pointer
whereas skb_tail_offset() also includes the headroom. This resulted
in the ip header being written in a wrong location.

Use return values of skb_put() directly and rely on skb->len to
set mac, network, and transport header.

FYI: ipmr and netpoll may be affected as well, the code as-is
is only correct if skb->head = skb->data. Will check those
later if nobody beats me to it.
