Add GRO capability for IPv6 GRE tunnel and ip6erspan tap, via gro_cells
infrastructure.

Performance testing: 55% higher badwidth.
Measuring bandwidth of 1 thread IPv4 TCP traffic over IPv6 GRE tunnel
while GRO on the physical interface is disabled.
CPU: Intel Xeon E312xx (Sandy Bridge)
NIC: Mellanox Technologies MT27700 Family [ConnectX-4]
Before (GRO not working in tunnel) : 2.47 Gbits/sec
After  (GRO working in tunnel)     : 3.85 Gbits/sec
