I think that looks okay overall now. One thing that will easily slip through
is that in the helper description you mentioned 'Check cannot use len_diff.'
for BPF_MTU_CHK_SEGS flag. So right now for non-zero len_diff the user
will still get BPF_MTU_CHK_RET_SUCCESS if the current length check via
skb_gso_validate_network_len(skb, mtu) passes. If it cannot be checked,
maybe enforce len_diff == 0 for gso skbs on BPF_MTU_CHK_SEGS?

Ok. Do you want/think this can be enforced by the verifier or are you
simply requesting that the helper will return -EINVAL (or another errno)?

Simple -EINVAL should be fine in this case. Generally, we can detect this from
verifier side but I don't think the extra complexity is worth it especially given
this is dependent on BPF_MTU_CHK_SEGS and otherwise can be non-zero.

Thanks,
Daniel
