From: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@xxxxxxxxxxx>
We currently rely on the PMTU discovery of xfrm.
However if a packet is localy sent, the PMTU mechanism
of xfrm tries to to local socket notification what
might not work for applications like ping that don't
check for this. So add pmtu handling to vti6_xmit to
report MTU changes immediately.

So this version is slightly modified to cover the IPv4 case in addition to
the IPv6 case. With this patch I was able to run netperf over either an
IPv4 or IPv6 address routed over the ip6_vti tunnel.
