Correct way to determine if a packet is a gso one is by looking at gso_size.
Then only it is legal looking at gso_type


static inline bool skb_is_gso(const struct sk_buff *skb)
{
    return skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size;
}

/* Note: Should be called only if skb_is_gso(skb) is true */
static inline bool skb_is_gso_v6(const struct sk_buff *skb)
...


There is absolutely no relation between GSO and skb->data_len, skb can be linearized
for various orthogonal reasons.
