[PATCH] gro: fix gro with ethernet tail padding bytes

Exclude CRC fields, the minimum Ethernet packet
length is 60 bytes. When the actual packet length
is less than 60 bytes, padding is added to the tail.
When GRO is performed on a packet containing a padding
field, mbuf->pkt_len is the one that contains the
padding field, which leads to the error of thinking
of the padding field as the actual content of the packet.
We need to trim away this extra padding field during
GRO processing.
