I am not sure about this change, Are you trying to limit GRE TSO to
just IPV4  in case of GRE offload in hardware?

You're right,
It probably should be fixed to:
	if (tdev && tdev->hw_enc_features & NETIF_F_GRE_GSO) {
		dev->features           |= tdev-> hw_enc_features & NETIF_F_GSO_MASK;
		dev->hw_features        |= tdev-> hw_enc_features & NETIF_F_GSO_MASK;

I think if device features are set right, dev_hard_start_xmit() should
do right thing without any of these changes. i.e. it will GSO ipv6
packets if hardware only supports GRE-ipv4 packets.
This patch changes that at encapsulated dev layer and disables rest of
GSO if one type of TSO available which is not optimal.
