Hi Sasha,
The backport of
fac8e0f579695a3ecbc4d3cac369139d7f819971
tunnels: Don't apply GRO to multiple layers of encapsulation
into 4.1 missed a hunk. The same backport into 3.18 was done
correctly. This patch introduces the missing hunk into 4.1.
Excepts from some emails:

Could you review this and run it through your tests and
send it along to Greg if appropriate?
Thanks,
