    ip_gre: set tunnel hlen properly in erspan_tunnel_init

    According to __gre_tunnel_init, tunnel->hlen should be set as the
    headers' length between inner packet and outer iphdr.

    It would be used especially to calculate a proper mtu when updating
    mtu in tnl_update_pmtu. Now without setting it, a bigger mtu value
    than expected would be updated, which hurts performance a lot.

    This patch is to fix it by setting tunnel->hlen with:
       tunnel->tun_hlen + tunnel->encap_hlen + sizeof(struct erspanhdr)

    Fixes: 84e54fe0a5ea ("gre: introduce native tunnel support for ERSPAN")
