vxlan: Add needed_headroom for lower device
It was observed that sending data via batadv over vxlan (on top of wireguard) reduced the performance massively compared to raw ethernet or batadv on raw ethernet. A check of perf data showed that the vxlan_build_skb was calling all the time pskb_expand_head to allocate enough headroom for: min_headroom = LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dst->dev) + dst->header_len + VXLAN_HLEN + iphdr_len; But the vxlan_config_apply only requested needed headroom for: lowerdev->hard_header_len + VXLAN6_HEADROOM or VXLAN_HEADROOM So it completely ignored the needed_headroom of the lower device. The first caller of net_dev_xmit could therefore never make sure that enough headroom was allocated for the rest of the transmit path.
