[ Upstream commit 235174b2bed88501fda689c113c55737f99332d8 ]
Commit 4094871db1d6 ("udp: only do GSO if # of segs > 1") avoided GSO for small packets. But the kernel currently dismisses GSO requests only after checking MTU/PMTU on gso_size. This means any packets, regardless of their payload sizes, could be dropped when PMTU becomes smaller than requested gso_size. We encountered this issue in production and it caused a reliability problem that new QUIC connection cannot be established before PMTU cache expired, while non GSO sockets still worked fine at the same time.
Ideally, do not check any GSO related constraints when payload size is smaller than requested gso_size, and return EMSGSIZE instead of EINVAL on MTU/PMTU check failure to be more specific on the error cause.
