i40e: fix offload of GRE tunnels
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The driver still was not offloading TSO on GRE tunnels because
it forgot to set the GSO_GRE flag, causing lots of retransmits.

This fixes generic GRE traffic (like a tunnel added like below)
whereas before it would get 1Gb/s or less, now on a 10G adapter
it gets 8.7Gb/s.
