	I think so. You can think of this in different way:
all transmitters are called from same place, there is no
difference in the packets we see. When we can use
__mtu_check_toobig_v6 for other methods relying on skb->len
being correct, we can do the same for tunnels, only that
tunnels have lower MTU, that is the only difference.

	Yes, sizeof(struct ipv6hdr) is needed only together
with payload_len because payload_len does not include the
first header.

	Yep
