Thanks Eric!


My bot points out a preexisting issue with this udp tunnel feature.
_Not_ reason for changing this patch.

virtio_net_hdr_tnl_to_skb already does not support IFF_TUN, as it has

    outer_l3min = ETH_HLEN + virtio_l3min(outer_isv6);

So the only reachable path with IFF_TUN is L3 with IPV4_OPT_LEN 16
(or greater) as indeed test patch 3/3 introduces.
