[net-next,0/7] GTP

There's ongoing work in this driver to provide support for IPv6, GRO,
GSO, and "collect metadata" mode operation.  In order to facilitate this
work going forward, this short series accumulates already ACK:ed patches
that are ready for the next merge window.

All of these patches should be uncontroversial at this point, including
the first one in the series that reverts a recently added change to
introduce "collect metadata" mode.  As that patch produces 'broken'
packets when common GTP headers are in place, it seems better to revert
it and rethink things a bit before inclusion.
