From: Peilin Ye <peilin.ye@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ff827beb706ed719c766acf36449801ded0c17fc ] For GRE and GRETAP devices, currently o_seqno starts from 1 in native mode. According to RFC 2890 2.2., "The first datagram is sent with a sequence number of 0." Fix it. It is worth mentioning that o_seqno already starts from 0 in collect_md mode, see gre_fb_xmit(), where tunnel->o_seqno is passed to gre_build_header() before getting incremented.
