Subject: geneve: fix needed_headroom and max_mtu for collect_metadata

From: Eric Garver <e@erig.me>


[ Upstream commit 9a1c44d989bff4c992b8b9a112d9fda275ea5515 ]

Since commit 9b4437a5b870 ("geneve: Unify LWT and netdev handling.")
when using COLLECT_METADATA geneve devices are created with too small of
a needed_headroom and too large of a max_mtu. This is because
ip_tunnel_info_af() is not valid with the device level info when using
COLLECT_METADATA and we mistakenly fall into the IPv4 case.

For COLLECT_METADATA, always use the worst case of ipv6 since both
sockets are created.
