Xin Long fe1a4ca0a2 ip6_gre: process toobig in a better way
Now ip6gre processes toobig icmp packet by setting gre dev's mtu in
ip6gre_err, which would cause few things not good:

  - It couldn't set mtu with dev_set_mtu due to it's not in user context,
    which causes route cache and idev->cnf.mtu6 not to be updated.

  - It has to update sk dst pmtu in tx path according to gredev->mtu for
    ip6gre, while it updates pmtu again according to lower dst pmtu in
    ip6_tnl_xmit.

  - To change dev->mtu by toobig icmp packet is not a good idea, it should
    only work on pmtu.

This patch is to process toobig by updating the lower dst's pmtu, as later
sk dst pmtu will be updated in ip6_tnl_xmit, the same way as in ip4gre.

Note that gre dev's mtu will not be updated any more, it doesn't make any
sense to change dev's mtu after receiving a toobig packet.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
