Subject: ip_tunnel: clear IPCB in ip_tunnel_xmit() in case dst_link_failure() is called
From: Duan Jiong <duanj.fnst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 11c21a307d79ea5f6b6fc0d3dfdeda271e5e65f6 ]
commit a622260254ee48("ip_tunnel: fix kernel panic with icmp_dest_unreach")
clear IPCB in ip_tunnel_xmit() , or else skb->cb[] may contain garbage from
GSO segmentation layer.
But commit 0e6fbc5b6c621("ip_tunnels: extend iptunnel_xmit()") refactor codes,
and it clear IPCB behind the dst_link_failure().
So clear IPCB in ip_tunnel_xmit() just like commti a622260254ee48("ip_tunnel:
fix kernel panic with icmp_dest_unreach").
