[net-next,1/2] ip_gre: increase inner ip header ID during segmentation

From: Cong Wang <amwang@redhat.com>

According to the previous discussion [1] on netdev list, DaveM insists
we should increase the IP header ID for each segmented packets.
This patch fixes it.

Outer IP header ids are incremented in inet_gso_segment for GRE. So it
is already done. In any case I don't think we should increment
IP-Identification in GRE handler, This is layering violation.
This breaks GRE with IPV6 payload.

I knew, $subject mentions this increases the *inner* IP header ID, not
outer one.

But you are probably right that we should check for IPv4, I will send
patch to fix it.

Thanks.
