tbf_enqueue() checks the size of a packet before enqueuing it.
However, the GSO size check does not consider the GSO_BY_FRAGS
case, and so will drop GSO SCTP packets, causing a massive drop
in throughput.

Use skb_gso_validate_mac_len() instead, as it does consider that
case.

---

skb_gso_validate_mac_len() is an out-of-line call, but so is
skb_gso_mac_seglen(), so this is slower but not much slower. I
will send a patch to make the skb_gso_validate_* functions
inline-able shortly.

Also, GSO_BY_FRAGS considered harmful - I'm pretty sure this is
not the only place it causes issues.

Thanks for spotting these issues and fixing them.

If this block was meant to be an out-of-band/changelog comment, your
SOB line should be above the first --- marker.
Anyhow,

Thanks - I did a v2 with this around the right way [1], but DaveM asked
me to be a bit more thorough and look for other GSO_BY_FRAGS issues. [2]

I did find a couple, including the one I asked you about with
qdisk_pkt_len_init [3] (thanks for your answer, btw). Currently I'm
trying to wrap my head around GSO_DODGY as Eric mentioned on that
thread, and then I'll do a series with this fix and the other
GSO_BY_FRAGS fixes I find.

Regards,
Daniel
