This patch does not work since it is still using compat
iptunnel_xmit(). We can not turn off iptunnel_xmit() compat code since
vxlan need it for gso.

It is possible to selectively use ip-tunnel compat code for vxlan and
not for gre. But it would be easier if we use gre compat code for 3.11
and turn it off completely in 3.12 where gre and vxlan tunnel can
directly use upstream kernel functionality.

Can you update patch to keep using compat gre code?
