The network device operation for reading statistics is only called
in one place, and it ignores the return value. Having a structure
return value is potentially confusing because some future driver could
incorrectly assume that the return value was used.

Fix all drivers with ndo_get_stats64 to have a void function.

Some configurations (e.g. geneve interface with default
MTU of 1500 over an ethernet interface with 1500 MTU) result
in the transmission of packets that exceed the configured MTU.
While this should be considered to be a "bad" configuration,
it is still allowed and should not result in the sending
of packets that exceed the configured MTU.

Fix by dropping the assumption in ip_finish_output_gso() that
locally originated gso packets will never need fragmentation.
Basic testing using iperf (observing CPU usage and bandwidth)
have shown no measurable performance impact for traffic not
requiring fragmentation.

<title>net: ip_finish_output_gso: Allow fragmenting segments of tunneled skbs if their DF is unset</title>

In b8247f095e,

   "net: ip_finish_output_gso: If skb_gso_network_seglen exceeds MTU, allow segmentation for local udp tunneled skbs"

gso skbs arriving from an ingress interface that go through UDP
tunneling, are allowed to be fragmented if the resulting encapulated
segments exceed the dst mtu of the egress interface.

This aligned the behavior of gso skbs to non-gso skbs going through udp
encapsulation path.

However the non-gso vs gso anomaly is present also in the following
cases of a GRE tunnel:
 - ip_gre in collect_md mode, where TUNNEL_DONT_FRAGMENT is not set
   (e.g. OvS vport-gre with df_default=false)
 - ip_gre in nopmtudisc mode, where IFLA_GRE_IGNORE_DF is set

In both of the above cases, the non-gso skbs get fragmented, whereas the
gso skbs (having skb_gso_network_seglen that exceeds dst mtu) get dropped,
as they don't go through the segment+fragment code path.

Fix: Setting IPSKB_FRAG_SEGS if the tunnel specified IP_DF bit is NOT set.

Tunnels that do set IP_DF, will not go to fragmentation of segments.
This preserves behavior of ip_gre in (the default) pmtudisc mode.

Given:
 - tap0 and vxlan0 are bridged
 - vxlan0 stacked on eth0, eth0 having small mtu (e.g. 1400)

Assume GSO skbs arriving from tap0 having a gso_size as determined by
user-provided virtio_net_hdr (e.g. 1460 corresponding to VM mtu of 1500).

After encapsulation these skbs have skb_gso_network_seglen that exceed
eth0's ip_skb_dst_mtu.

These skbs are accidentally passed to ip_finish_output2 AS IS.
Alas, each final segment (segmented either by validate_xmit_skb or by
hardware UFO) would be larger than eth0 mtu.
As a result, those above-mtu segments get dropped on certain networks.

This behavior is not aligned with the NON-GSO case:
Assume a non-gso 1500-sized IP packet arrives from tap0. After
encapsulation, the vxlan datagram is fragmented normally at the
ip_finish_output--&gt;ip_fragment code path.

The expected behavior for the GSO case would be segmenting the
"gso-oversized" skb first, then fragmenting each segment according to
dst mtu, and finally passing the resulting fragments to ip_finish_output2.

'ip_finish_output_gso' already supports this "Slowpath" behavior,
according to the IPSKB_FRAG_SEGS flag, which is only set during ipv4
forwarding (not set in the bridged case).

In order to support the bridged case, we'll mark skbs arriving from an
ingress interface that get udp-encaspulated as "allowed to be fragmented",
causing their network_seglen to be validated by 'ip_finish_output_gso'
(and fragment if needed).

Note the TUNNEL_DONT_FRAGMENT tun_flag is still honoured (both in the
gso and non-gso cases), which serves users wishing to forbid
fragmentation at the udp tunnel endpoint.
