gre: let mac_header point to outer header only when necessary
Commit e271c7b4 ("gre: do not keep the GRE header around in collect medata mode") did reset the mac_header for the collect_md case. Let's extend this behaviour to classical gre devices as well. ipgre_header_parse() seems to be the only case that requires mac_header to point to the outer header. We can detect this case accurately by checking ->header_ops. For all other cases, we can reset mac_header. This allows to push an Ethernet header to ipgre packets and redirect them to an Ethernet device: $ tc filter add dev gre0 ingress matchall \ action vlan push_eth dst_mac 00:00:5e:00:53:01 \ src_mac 00:00:5e:00:53:00 \ action mirred egress redirect dev eth0 Before this patch, this worked only for collect_md gre devices. Now this works for regular gre devices as well. Only the special case of gre devices that use ipgre_header_ops isn't supported.
