ip6_tunnel: Account for tunnel header in tunnel MTU
With ip6gre we have a tunnel header which also makes the tunnel MTU smaller. We need to reserve room for it. Previously we were using up space reserved for the Tunnel Encapsulation Limit option header (RFC 2473). Also, after commit b05229f4 ("gre6: Cleanup GREv6 transmit path, call common GRE functions") our contract with the caller has changed. Now we check if the packet length exceeds the tunnel MTU after the tunnel header has been pushed, unlike before. This is reflected in the check where we look at the packet length minus the size of the tunnel header, which is already accounted for in tunnel MTU.
