The ipv6_gro_* used in net/core/dev.c and net/ipv6/ip6_offload.c. This
left me with four options:
1. Use existing and already shared file - include/net/ipv6.h
2. Create new header and put it in net/, so include will be something
like that "../new_file.h".
3. Put new header in one of the folders or core/ or ipv6/.
4. Create new file in include/net just for those two lines.

I preferred option #1, which other option do you want me to redo?

Thanks for the review.
