Subject: [PATCH v2 net] net/xfrm: IPsec tunnel mode fix inner_ipproto setting in sec_path

The inner_ipproto saves the inner IP protocol of the plain
text packet. This allows vendor's IPsec feature making offload
decision at skb's features_check and configuring hardware at
ndo_start_xmit, current code implenetation did not handle the
case where IPsec is used in tunnel mode.

Fix by handling the case when IPsec is used in tunnel mode by
reading the protocol of the plain text packet IP protocol.

hmm, there are two mlx5 patches that depend on this patch, I thought Raed
was planning to send them along with this.

Steffen, is it ok if I submit those two patches to you and so you would
send them all at once in your next net PR ?

Thanks,
Saeed.

The pull request with that patch included is already merged into
the net tree. So if you pull the net tree, you can apply the
mlx5 patches yourself. But if you prefer, I can take them too.
