ip_tunnel: Fix a memory corruption in ip_tunnel_xmit
[ Upstream commit 3e08f4a72f689c6296d336c2aab4bddd60c93ae2 ] We might extend the used aera of a skb beyond the total headroom when we install the ipip header. Fix this by calling skb_cow_head() unconditionally. Bug was introduced with commit c544193214 ("GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.")
