gso_segment: Reset skb->mac_len after modifying network header
When splitting a GSO segment that consists of encapsulated packets, the
skb->mac_len of the segments can end up being set wrong, causing packet
drops in particular when using act_mirred and ifb interfaces in
combination with a qdisc that splits GSO packets.
This happens because at the time skb_segment() is called, network_header
will point to the inner header, throwing off the calculation in
skb_reset_mac_len(). The network_header is subsequently adjust by the
outer IP gso_segment handlers, but they don't set the mac_len.
Fix this by adding skb_reset_mac_len() calls to both the IPv4 and IPv6
gso_segment handlers, after they modify the network_header.
Many thanks to Eric Dumazet for his help in identifying the cause of
the bug.
