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

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

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet at google.com>

[ Upstream commit 29e98242783ed3ba569797846a606ba66f781625 ]

Starting from linux-3.13, GRO attempts to build full size skbs.

Problem is the commit assumed one particular field in skb->cb[]
was clean, but it is not the case on some stacked devices.

Timo reported a crash in case traffic is decrypted before
reaching a GRE device.

Fix this by initializing NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->last at the right place,
this also removes one conditional.

Thanks a lot to Timo for providing full reports and bisecting this.

Fixes: 8a29111c7ca6 ("net: gro: allow to build full sized skb")
