4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit a6aa80446234ec0ad38eecdb8efc59e91daae565 ] Commit 128bb975dc3c ("ip6_gre: init dev->mtu and dev->hard_header_len correctly") fixed IFLA_MTU ignored on NEWLINK for ip6_gre. The same mtu fix is also needed for ip6_tunnel. Note that dev->hard_header_len setting for ip6_tunnel works fine, no need to fix it.
