net: allow gro_max_size to exceed 65536
Allow the gro_max_size to exceed a value larger than 65536. There weren't really any external limitations that prevented this other than the fact that IPv4 only supports a 16 bit length field. Since we have the option of adding a hop-by-hop header for IPv6 we can allow IPv6 to exceed this value and for IPv4 and non-TCP flows we can cap things at 65536 via a constant rather than relying on gro_max_size. [edumazet] limit GRO_MAX_SIZE to (8 * 65535) to avoid overflows. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <alexanderduyck@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
