    udp: Add GRO functions to UDP socket · a6024562

    This patch adds GRO functions (gro_receive and gro_complete) to UDP
    sockets. udp_gro_receive is changed to perform socket lookup on a
    packet. If a socket is found the related GRO functions are called.
    
    This features obsoletes using UDP offload infrastructure for GRO
    (udp_offload). This has the advantage of not being limited to provide
    offload on a per port basis, GRO is now applied to whatever individual
    UDP sockets are bound to.  This also allows the possbility of
    "application defined GRO"-- that is we can attach something like
    a BPF program to a UDP socket to perfrom GRO on an application
    layer protocol.
