Indeed.  We need to reset the GSO bits there since the new
packet is nothing like the one it's copied from.

[NETFILTER]: Clear GSO bits for TCP reset packet

The TCP reset packet is copied from the original.  This
includes all the GSO bits which do not apply to the new
packet.  So we should clear those bits.

Spotted by Patrick McHardy.

Something like this is needed for all trees with GSO.
Actually it applies to TSO too although the effect there
is a bit harder to notice.

Cheers,
