[PATCH net-next] ipv4: gso: send_check() & segment() cleanups

[PATCH net-next] ipv4: gso: send_check() & segment() cleanups

[Eric Dumazet]

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

inet_gso_segment() and inet_gso_send_check() are called by
skb_mac_gso_segment() under rcu lock, no need to use
rcu_read_lock() / rcu_read_unlock()

Avoid calling ip_hdr() twice per function.

We can use ip_send_check() helper.
