3.16.7-ckt3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Yuri Chislov <yuri.chislov at gmail.com>

commit be6572fdb1bfbe23b2624d477de50af50b02f5d6 upstream.

When using GRE redirection in WCCP, it sets the wrong skb->protocol,
that is, ETH_P_IP instead of ETH_P_IPV6 for the encapuslated traffic.

Fixes: c12b395a4664 ("gre: Support GRE over IPv6")
