net: rename skb_gso_validate_mtu -> skb_gso_validate_network_len
If you take a GSO skb, and split it into packets, will the network length (L3 headers + L4 headers + payload) of those packets be small enough to fit within a given MTU? skb_gso_validate_mtu gives you the answer to that question. However, we recently added to add a way to validate the MAC length of a split GSO skb (L2+L3+L4+payload), and the names get confusing, so rename skb_gso_validate_mtu to skb_gso_validate_network_len Signed-off-by: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net> Reviewed-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
