[PATCH net 1/2] Set skb->protocol properly before calling dst_output()

[Eli Cooper]

When xfrm is applied to TSO/GSO packets, it follows this path:

    xfrm_output() -> xfrm_output_gso() -> skb_gso_segment()

where skb_gso_segment() relies on skb->protocol to function properly.

This patch sets skb->protocol properly before dst_output() is called,
fixing a bug where GSO packets sent through a sit or ipip6 tunnel are
dropped when xfrm is involved.
