I think that the background context of this patch is that there are no
SKB_GSO_UDP frames in the latest upstream versions of the kernel.
However, in the OVS datapath we will be running against earlier
kernels that still have these flags. If we think that this could
impact forwarding (and we care about such configurations on older
kernels) then we might have to consider #ifdefing these pieces.
Otherwise this seems OK.
